Dynamic DNS
16.1 Overview
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) services let you use a domain name with a dynamic IP
address.
16.2 What You Can Do
Use the Dynamic DNS screen (
) to enable DDNS and
configure the DDNS settings on the NBG-419N.
16.3 What You Need To Know
Dynamic DNS 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 domain name (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where myhost 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.
