Dynamic DNS
9.1 Overview
This chapter discusses how to configure your LTE Device to use Dynamic DNS. Dynamic
DNS allows you to update your current dynamic IP address with one or many dynamic DNS
services so that anyone can contact you (in applications such as NetMeeting and CU-SeeMe).
You can also access your FTP server or Web site on your own computer using a domain name
(for instance myhost.dhs.org, where myhost is a name of your choice) that will never change
instead of using an IP address that changes each time you reconnect. Your friends or relatives
will always be able to call you even if they don't know your IP address.
First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org or
www.no-ip.com. This is for people with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that
would still like to have a domain name. The Dynamic DNS service provider will give you a
password or key.
9.1.1 What You Need To Know
DYNDNS Wildcard
Enabling the wildcard feature for your host causes *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the
same IP address as yourhost.dyndns.org. This feature is useful if you want to be able to use,
for example, www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.
If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use Dynamic DNS.
