Configuration Commands
Rev 3.0B Feb.08 136
*DNSUPDATE=n
Indicates whether the modem should send DNS updates to the
DNS server specified by *DNSUSER. These updates are as per
RFC2136. They are not secure and are recommended only for a
private network. In a public network, the IP Logger services
should be used instead.
• n=0 : DNS updates disabled (Default).
• n=1 : DNS updates enabled.
*DNSUSER=d.d.d.d
Sets a user‐provided DNS to query first when performing
name resolutions in the modem.
• d.d.d.d=IP address of domain server
Dynamic IP
This group includes commands specific to dynamic DNS.
Dynamic DNS allows the PinPoint X to use a dynamic IP
address account, with an IP address that can change each time
you connect, and still allow you to use a fully qualified domain
name to contact the PinPoint X using IP Manager running on a
server with a dynamic DNS updater.
Figure 1-11: AceManager : Dynamic IP
*DOMAIN=name
Domain (or domain zone) of which the PinPoint X is a part.
This value is used during name resolutions if a fully qualified
name is not provided and also for DNS updates. This value can
be up to 20 characters long.
• name=domain name (i.e. eairlink.com)
If *DOMAIN=eairlink.com, then when ATDT@remote1 is
entered, the fully qualified name remote1.eairlink.com will be
used to perform a DNS query to resolve the name to an IP
address.
