Camera communicating with Amcrest sites

Post by armalone »

I have an ip3m-943 camera connected to my wifi network. I have not configured any cloud / ddns access yet the camera is contacting several Amcrest sites.

These are a few items from my router log. I have blocked camera ID details:
Access Time Client's Name Domain Name
2017-5-13 09:03:05 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dh.amcrestsecurity.com
2017-5-13 08:57:13 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx command-3.amcrestcloud.com
2017-5-13 08:57:12 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx config.amcrestcloud.com
2017-5-13 08:03:05 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dh.amcrestsecurity.com
2017-5-13 07:03:05 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dh.amcrestsecurity.com
2017-5-13 06:57:09 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx command-3.amcrestcloud.com
2017-5-13 06:57:08 AMCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx config.amcrestcloud.com

Obviously some hard coded info. Does anyone know what and why?
