DDNS

DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a combination of DHCP, DNS, and client registration. DDNS

allows administrators to alias the VPort’s dynamic IP address to a static hostname in any of the domains

provided by the DDNS service providers listed on the VPort’s Network/DDNS configuration page. DDNS makes

it easier to access the VPort from various locations on the Internet.

Setting Description Default

(Dynamic), DynDNS.org (Custom), TZO.com, and dhs.org.

NOTE

Dynamic DNS is a very useful tool for accessing a VPort over the Internet, especially for xDSL connections with

a non

-fixed IP address (DHCP). The administrator and users can simplify connecting to a VPort with a non-

fixed

IP address, by using the unique host name in the URL to establish a connection with the VPort.

NOTE

Different DDNS service providers have different applicati

on rules. Some applications are free of charge, but

most require an application fee.
