2.4.10 DDNS
The WLAN VoIP Gateway supports DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service). The Dynamic
DNS service allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in
any domains, allowing access to a specified host from various locations on the Internet. This
is enabled to allow remote access to a host by clicking a hyperlinked URL in the form
“hostname.dyndns.org”. Many ISPs assign public IP addresses using DHCP that makes it
difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using standard DNS. For example, when you
are running a public web server or VPN server on your LAN, this ensures that the host can
be located from the Internet if the public IP address changes. DDNS requires that an
account be setup with one of the supported DDNS providers.

2.4.11 SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol used to
manage and monitor TCP/IP-based devices. SNMP is used to exchange management
information between the network management system (NMS) and a network element (NE).
A manager station can manage and monitor the WLAN VoIP Gateway through the network
via SNMP version one (SNMPv1), SNMP version 2c.
