Dynamic DNS

The device supports dynamic domain name service (DDNS). The dynamic DNS

service allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host

name in any of the many domains, and allows access to a specified host from

various locations on the Internet. Click a hyperlinked URL in the form of

hostname.dyndns.org and allow remote access to a host. Many ISPs assign

public IP addresses using DHCP, so locating a specific host on the LAN using the

standard DNS is difficult. For example, if you are running a public web server or

VPN server on your LAN, DDNS ensures that the host can be located from the

Internet even if the public IP address changes. DDNS requires that an account

be set up with one of the supported DDNS service providers (DyndDNS.org or

Dlinkddns.com).
