3.6.5 DDNS
Go to Access Management-> DDNS to set DDNS account.
The Dynamic Domain Name System allows you to update your current dynamic IP
address with one or many dynamic DNS services so that anyone can contact you (in
NetMeeting, CU-SeeMe, etc.). You can also access your FTP server or Web site on
your own computer using a DNS-like address (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where my
host is a name of your choice) that will never change instead of using an IP address that
changes each time you reconnect. Your friends or relatives will always be able to call
you even if they don't know your IP address. First of all, you need to have registered a
dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. This is for people with a dynamic IP
from their ISP or DHCP server that would still like to have a DNS name. The Dynamic
DNS service provider will give you a password or key.
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
