Dynamic DNS

Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a method of keeping a domain name linked to a changing IP
address since not all computers use static IP addresses. Dynamic DNS automatically updates a server in the
DNS with the active configuration of its hostnames, addresses, or other information. DDNS assigns a fixed
domain name to a dynamic WAN IP address.
To configure dynamic DNS policies, follow these steps:
Step 1 Select WAN > Dynamic DNS.
Step 2
In the Dynamic DNS Table, select the interface to add to the Dynamic DNS policy.
Step 3 Click Edit.
Step 4
Check Enable this Dynamic DNS policy to enable the policy configuration.
Step 5 Select the name of service provider from the Provider drop-down list.
Step 6
Enter a Username and Password for the DDNS account. To display the password, check Enable in the Show Password
field.
Step 7
Enter the full name of the device including the domain name in Fully Qualified Domain Name.
Step 8 Check Enable to receive updates to Dynamic DNS provider and select the periodicity.
Step 9
Click Apply.

Hardware DMZ

A Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) accepts all incoming traffic and allows all outgoing traffic. A DMZ is a
subnetwork that is open to the public but behind the firewall. A DMZ allows you to redirect packets entering
your WAN port to a specific IP address. You can configure the firewall rules to allow access to specific
services and ports in the DMZ from both the LAN and WAN. If there is an attack on any of the DMZ nodes,
the LAN is not necessarily vulnerable. We recommend that you place hosts that must be exposed to the WAN
(such as web or email servers) in the DMZ network.
To configure the hardware DMZ configuration, follow these steps:
Step 1 Select WAN > Hardware DMZ.
Step 2
Click Enable to change the LAN8 to DMZ port.
