How To |
Allied Telesis routers feature a dynamic DNS client, which allows you to host web domains,
FTP servers, and mail servers behind a dynamically-assigned public IP address that periodically
changes. The dynamic DNS client works with the service provided by DynDNS.com
(
). When the public IP address changes, the client notifies DynDNS.com of
the change.
