IP address is when you want to access your network over the Internet. The solution to the dynamic
IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic DNS service.
The Internet uses DNS servers to lookup domain names and translates them into IP addresses.
Domain names are just easy to remember aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service is
unique because it provides a means of updating your IP address so that your listing will remain
current when your IP address changes. There are several excellent DDNS services available on
the Internet and best of all they’re free to use. One such service you can use is www.DynDNS.org.
You’ll need to register with the service and set up the domain name of your choice to begin using it.
Please refer to the home page of the service for detailed instructions or refer to Appendix E for
more information.
DynDns.org , the procedures are:
(1) Enable this service
(2) Key-in the DynDNS server name, user name, and password.
(3) Set up the IP Schedule update refreshing rate.
(4) Click “
Apply ”
(5) If setting up IP schedule update too frequently, the IP may be blocked. In general, schedule
update every day (1440 minutes) is recommended.
