DESCRIPTION

Host Name

Enter your host name in this field.

DDNS Type

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select DynamicDNS if you have the

Dynamic DNS service.
Select StaticDNS if you have the Static DNS service.
Select CustomDNS if you have the Custom DNS service.

Enable

Wildcard

Option

Your ZyWALL supports DYNDNS Wildcard. Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER]

to select Yes or No. This field is N/A when you choose DDNS client as your service

provider.

Enable Off

Line Option

This field is only available when CustomDNS is selected in the DDNS Type field.

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Yes. When Yes is selected,

http://

www.dyndns.org/

traffic is redirected to a URL that you have previously specified

(see

www.dyndns.org

for details).

Bind WAN

Enter the WAN interface to use for updating the IP address of the domain name.

HA

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Yes to enable the high availability

(HA) feature.
If the WAN interface specified in the Bind WAN field does not have a connection, the

ZyWALL will attempt to use the IP address of another WAN interface to update the

domain name.
When the WAN interfaces are in the active/passive operating mode, the ZyWALL will

update the domain name with the IP address of whichever WAN interface has a

connection, regardless of the setting in the Bind WAN field.
Clear this check box and the ZyWALL will not update the domain name with an IP

address if the WAN interface specified in the Bind WAN field does not have a

connection.

Note: If you enable high availability, DDNS can also function when the

ZyWALL uses the dial backup port. DDNS does not function
when the ZyWALL uses traffic redirect.
