DDNS Update Method Configuration
Usage
The update URL (provided by the DDNS provider) can include a user name,
password, host name and/or IP address. These user values are optional because
they may vary depending on the DDNS provider’s update URLs. AlliedWare Plus
requires you to enter the required parameters for the update URL using the
following placeholder tokens:
•
for the user name enter “<USERNAME>”
•
for the password enter “<PASSWORD>”
•
for the host name enter “<HOST-NAME>”
•
for the IP address enter “<IPADDRESS>”
For example, for DynDNS the following update URL can be used:
http://username:[email protected]/nic/update?
SYSTEM=dyndns&hostname=<h>&myip=<a>
To configure this URL, use the following command including the placeholder
tokens as written here:
awplus(config-ddns-update-method)#
update-url
http://<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>@members.dyndns.org/nic/update?
SYSTEM=dyndns&hostname=<HOST-NAME>&myip=<IPADDRESS>
Parameter
Description
<url-name>
The update URL is provided by the DDNS provider and can be
configured with the following placeholder tokens:
•
<USERNAME>
•
<PASSWORD>
•
<HOST-NAME>
•
<IPADDRESS>
To specify the values for <USERNAME>, <PASSWORD> and
<HOST-NAME>, use the commands
username, password
and
hostname
. The value for <IPADDRESS> is populated
automatically from the interface IP settings.
