FR328S Cable/DSL ProSafe Firewall with Dial Back-Up
Advanced Configuration
5-7
The firewall contains a client that can connect to a dynamic DNS service provider. To use this
feature, you must select a service provider and obtain an account with them. After you have
configured your account information in the firewall, whenever your ISP-assigned IP address
changes, your firewall will automatically contact your dynamic DNS service provider, log in to
your account, and register your new IP address.
Procedure 5-2: Configure Dynamic DNS
1.
Log in to the firewall at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default User
Name of
admin
, default password of
password
, or using whatever Password and LAN
address you have chosen for the firewall.
2.
From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under Advanced, click on Dynamic DNS.
3.
Access the website of one of the dynamic DNS service providers whose names appear in the
‘Select Service Provider’ box, and register for an account.
For example, for dyndns.org, go to www.dyndns.org.
4.
Select the “Use a dynamic DNS service” check box.
5.
Select the name of your dynamic DNS Service Provider.
6.
Type the Host Name that your dynamic DNS service provider gave you.
The dynamic DNS service provider may call this the domain name. If your URL is
myName.dyndns.org, then your Host Name is “myName.”
7.
Type the User Name for your dynamic DNS account.
8.
Type the Password (or key) for your dynamic DNS account.
9.
If your dynamic DNS provider allows the use of wildcards in resolving your URL, you may
select the Use wildcards check box to activate this feature.
For example, the wildcard feature will cause *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same
IP address as yourhost.dyndns.org
10.
Click Apply to save your configuration.
Note:
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x, the
dynamic DNS service will not work because private addresses will not be routed on the
Internet.
