Configure Dynamic DNS
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is an Internet service that allows devices with varying public IPv4
addresses to be located using Internet domain names. To use DDNS, you must set up an
account with a DDNS provider such as Dyn, TZO, Oray, or 3322. (Links to Dyn, TZO, Oray,
and 3322 are provided for your convenience as option arrows on the DDNS configuration
screens.) The VPN firewall firmware includes software that notifies DDNS servers of changes
in the WAN IP address so that the services running on this network can be accessed by
others on the Internet.
If your network uses a permanently assigned IP address, you can register a domain name
and link that name with your IP address using public Domain Name Servers (DNS). However,

Servers
