8 Configuring DDNS
Dynamic DNS is a service that allows computers to use the same domain
name, even when the IP address changes from time to time (during reboot
or when the ISP’s DHCP server resets IP leases).The router connects to a
Dynamic DNS service whenever the WAN IP address changes. It supports
setting up the web services such as Web server, and FTP server using a
domain name instead of the IP address. Dynamic DNS supports the DDNS
clients with the following features:
• Update DNS records (addition) when an external interface comes up
• Force DNS update
HTTP Dynamic DNS Client
HTTP DDNS client uses the mechanism provided by the popular DDNS
service providers for updating the DNS records dynamically. In this case,
the service provider updates DNS records in the DNS. The router uses
HTTP to trigger this update.
The router supports HTTP DDNS update with the following service
providers:
• www.dyndns.org
• www.zoneedit.com
• www.dns-tokyo.jp
