3.1.4.2 Dynamic DNS
To host your server on a changing IP address, you have to use dynamic domain name service
(DDNS). So that anyone wishing to reach your host only needs to know the name of it. Dynamic
DNS will map the name of your host to your current IP address, which changes each time you
connect your Internet service provider.
Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register an account on one of these Dynamic DNS
servers that we list in Provider field.
To enable Dynamic DNS click the check box next to Enable in the DDNS field. Next you have to
enter the appropriate information about your Dynamic DNS Serve .Provider, Host Name,
Username/E-mail, and Password/Key. You can get this information when you register an
account on a Dynamic DNS server.
Click on “Save” to store your settings or click “Undo” to give up the changes.
