16.2 DynDNS Client

The use of dynamic IP addresses has the disadvantage that a host in the network can no
longer be found once its IP address has changed. DynDNS ensures that your device can
still be reached after a change to the IP address.
The following configuration steps are necessary:
• Registration of a host name at a DynDNS provider
• Configuration of your device
Enrolment
The registration of a host name means that you define an individual user name for the
DynDNS service, e.g. dyn_client. The service providers offer various domain names for
this, so that a unique host name results for your device , e.g.
dyn_client.provider.com. The DynDNS provider relieves you of the task of answer-
ing all DNS requests concerning the host dyn_client.provider.com with the dynamic
IP address of your device.
To ensure that the provider always knows the current IP address of your device, your
device contacts the provider when setting up a new connection and propagates its present
IP address.
