Configuring Dynamic DNS
To begin using Dynamic DNS, you must first set up an account with one of the 4 free
service providers listed below:
•
DynDNS.org
•
changeip.com
•
No-IP.com
•
yi.org
It is possible to use multiple providers simultaneously. The registration process normally
involves a confirmation e-mail from the provider, with a final acknowledgment performed
by visiting a unique URL embedded in the confirmation e-mail.
After logging in to the selected provider's page, you should visit the administrative link
(typically 'add' or 'manage'), and create your host entries. This must be performed prior
to attempting to use the dynamic DNS client on SonicOS.
The
Network > Dynamic DNS
page provides the settings for configuring the
SonicWALL UTM appliance to use your DDNS service.
To configure Dynamic DNS on the SonicWALL UTM appliance, perform these steps:
1. From the
Network > Dynamic DNS
page, click the
Add
button. The
Add DDNS
Profile
window is displayed.
