This solves the problems if your DNS server uses an IP associated with dynamic IPs. Without DDNS, we always tell the users to use the WAN IP of the P-660HW-Tx v2 to access the internal server. It is inconvenient for the users if this IP is dynamic.
Page 65
When the ISP assigns the P-660HW-Tx v2 a new IP, the P-660HW-Tx v2 must inform the DDNS server the change of this IP so that the server can update its IP-to-DNS entry. Once the IP-to-DNS table in the DDNS server is updated, the DNS name for your web server (i.e., www.zyxel.com.tw) is still usable.
7. Network Management Using SNMP • ZyXEL SNMP Implementation ZyXEL currently includes SNMP support in some P-660HW-Tx v2 routers. It is implemented based on the SNMPv1, so it will be able to communicate with SNMPv1 NMSs. Further, users can also add ZyXEL's private MIB in the NMS to monitor and control additional system variables.

The P-660HW-Tx v2 will only respond Trusted to SNMP messages coming from this IP address. If 0.0.0.0 is entered, Host the P-660HW-Tx v2 will respond to all NMS managers.
In a typical environment, a LAN router is required to connect two local networks. The P-660HW-Tx v2 can connect three local networks to the ISP or a remote node, we call this function as 'IP Alias'. In this case, an internal router is not required.
Page 70
'IP Alias 1' and 'IP Alias 2' can be configured in Network -> LAN -> IP Alias. There are three internal virtual LAN interfaces for the P-660HW-Tx v2 to route the packets from/to the three networks correctly. They are enif0 for the major network, enif0:0 for the IP alias 1 and enif0:1 for the IP alias 2.
