5.7.5. Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS client can be used to tell one or multiple DynDNS providers the current IP address of
your system. This address can be derived from the current hotlink interface or the outgoing interface
which will be used when contacting the server. We further support to ask the CheckIP service at
dyndns.org for obtaining the current Internet address which can be useful in NAT scenarios. The
DynDNS client will be triggered whenever a WAN or VPN link comes up.

Figure 5.39.: Dynamic DNS Settings
We provide support for a bunch of common DynDNS operators but it is also possible to define a custom
update URL.
Please note that your NetModule router can operate as DynDNS server on its own, provided that you
have your hosts pointed to the DNS service of the router.
We can further operate the GnuDIP protocol and RFC2136-like dynamic DNS updates. The latter is in
general secured by a TSIG key.
