Setup > DDNS

The Gateway offers a Dynamic Domain Name System

(DDNS) feature. DDNS lets you assign a fixed host and

domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful

when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or

other server behind the Gateway.
Before you can use this feature, you need to sign

up for DDNS service with a DDNS service provider,

www.dyndns.org or www.TZO.com. If you do not want to

use this feature, keep the default, Dsabled.
