12 DynDNS Commands

Introduction

Dynamic DNS is a service that allows to bind a host name to an IP address. In contrast to classical DNS, this
service allows regular updates of the IP address related to a host name. In this way, hosts of which the IP
address regularly changes (for example due to a limited DHCP lease time) can be identified by a static host
name that is unique throughout the Internet.
