MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3

46

RoS Modem - ISDN 1.3 will either forward the DNS queries to the previously configured
DNS servers in the Internet, or will use the IP addresses sent during the PPP connection
setup as DNS server.

Configuration with the web interface

To make sure that the MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3 uses the DNS servers sent
during the PPP connection setup, enter the address 127.0.0.1 in the menu
"DNS" in the entry field "First DNS server address" (Figure 13, page 34 above,
position 2), as recommended in the basic setting. Network clients, which re-
trieve their IP address as well as the DNS configuration via DHCP from the
MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3, will receive the IP address of the MoRoS Modem -
ISDN 1.3 as the first DNS server.

For the MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3 to be able to forward the DNS queries to de-
fined name servers, enter the addresses of the according name servers in the
entry fields "First DNS server address" and "Second DNS server address"
(Figure 13, page 34 above, position 2).

Save the settings by clicking "OK" (Figure 13, page 34 above, position 3).

Setting up the Dynamic DNS Update

The MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3 can forward the IP address, which it was allocated during
the dial-in into the Internet, to a DynDNS provider, so it can be reached from the Internet
with a domain name. This means that the network behind the MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3
can always be reached with the same domain name from the Internet, also for dynami-
cally allocated IP addresses (if the allocated IP address for incoming connections is not
protected). The MoRoS Modem - ISDN 1.3 will update the IP address connected to the
domain name at the DynDNS provider during each dialup. For this function, you will need
an account with a DynDNS provider.

Configuration with the web interface

To set up the dynamic DNS update, activate the checkbox "Activate dynamic
DNS update" in the menu "DNS" on the page "Dyn. DNS update" (Figure 14,
page 35 above, position 1).

Select a DynDNS provider from the dropdown menu "DynDNS provider"
(Figure 14, page 35 above, position 2).

To define your own DynDNS server, select the entry field "Custom server" in
the dropdown menu "DynDNS provider" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 2),
and enter a DynDNS server in this field (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 6).

Enter the domain name that needs to be updated in the entry field "Domain
name" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 3).

Enter the user name and password of your DynDNS account in the entry fields
"User name" and "Password" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 5).

Save your settings by clicking "OK" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 4).
