N300 Wireless Dual Band ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3300v2
and retrieved. Now, a gateway can be configured to use a third-party service instead of a
permanent and unchanging IP address to establish bi-directional VPN connectivity.
To use DDNS, you need to register with a DDNS service provider. Some DDNS service
providers include:
• DynDNS: www.dyndns.org
• TZO.com: netgear.tzo.com
• ngDDNS: ngddns.iego.net
In this example, Gateway A is configured using a sample FQDN provided by a DDNS service
provider. In this case we established the hostname dg834g.dyndns.org for Gateway A using
the DynDNS service. Gateway B uses the DDNS service provider when establishing a VPN
tunnel.
To establish VPN connectivity, Gateway A has to be configured to use Dynamic DNS, and
Gateway B has to be configured to use a DNS host name provided by a DDNS service
provider to find Gateway A. Again, the following step-by-step procedures assume that you
have already registered with a DDNS service provider and have the configuration information
necessary to set up the gateways.
