9.4.6 Dynamic DNS
Dynamic domain name resolution (DDNS) is mainly used to achieve
resolution between fixed domain names and dynamic IP addresses. For a
user that uses a dynamic IP address, after the user obtains a new IP
address in the Internet access, the dynamic domain name software
installed in the host sends the IP address to the DDNS server provided by
the DDNS service provider and updates the domain name resolution
database. When another user on the Internet tries accessing the domain
name, the dynamic domain name resolution server returns the correct IP
address.
Choose Network Application > Dynamic DNS and the Dynamic DNS page
is displayed.
