The DI-524UP supports Dynamic Domain Name Service. Dynamic DNS allows a

dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in any of the many

domains, allowing access to a specific host from various locations on the Internet. With

this function enabled, remote access to a host will be allowed by choosing a URL by

using the pull-down menu. Because many ISPs assign public IP addresses using DHCP,

it can be difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using the standard DNS. 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 if the public IP address changes.
