Aten CN8000A [59/203] Network transfer rate

5. Administration

DDNS

DDNS maps the dynamic IP address assigned by a DHCP server to a host

name. The CN8000A can update the DDNS server with its IP address

whenever the IP address is changed.

To enable the DDNS capability for the CN8000A, do the following:

1. Check Enable.

2. Enter the Host Name that you registered with your DDNS service provider.

3. Drop down the DDNS list to select the DDNS service you are registered

with.

4. Key in the Username and Password that authenticates you with your

DDNS service.

5. In the DDNS Retry Time field, key in how many hours the CN8000A waits

before it tries to reconnect to the DDNS server, when the CN8000A fails

to connect.

Network Transfer Rate

This setting allows you to tailor the size of the data transfer stream to match

network traffic conditions by setting the rate at which the CN8000A transfers

data to remote computers. The range is from 4–99999 Kilobytes per second

(KBps).

Finishing Up

After making any network changes, be sure Reset on exit on the Customization

page (see Customization, page 70) has been enabled (there is a check in the

checkbox), before logging out. This allows network changes to take effect

without having to power the CN8000A off and on.
