Configure Dynamic DNS
You can use Dynamic Domain Name Server (DDNS) to ensure that whenever the DHCP server changes the
Pearl device's IP address, the Pearl device informs the DDNS to update it's domain name records. That way, you
can keep using the Pearl device's FQDN without worry.
The DDNS feature is useful if your DHCP server doesn't support Option 81. Custom DDNS servers, dyndns.org,
and noip.com are supported.
