When using the DDNS service, each time the IP address provided by your ISP changes,
the DNS database will change accordingly to reflect the change. In this way, even though
your IP address will change often, your domain name will remain constant and accessible.
13.18.1 Opening a Dynamic DNS Account
To be able to use the DDNS feature, you must first open a free DDNS account at
http://www.dyndns.org/account/create.html.
When applying for an account, you will need to specify a user name and password. Have
them readily available when customizing the MP-202's DDNS support. For detailed
information on DDNS, refer to http://www.dyndns.org.
To open a dynamic DNS account:
Click the icon 'Dynamic DNS' in the 'Advanced' screen of the Management Console;
the 'Dynamic DNS' connections screen opens (refer to the figure) displaying a table
showing the different connections and their DDNS aliases.
Click the link 'Add Connection' to add a new connection; alternatively, click the icon
under 'Action'; the 'Dynamic DNS' screen appears (refer to the figure).
