Dynamic Dns Settings - peplink Pepwave MAX Series User Manual

Automatic Public DNS Server Check on DNS Test Failure
When the health check method is set to DNS Lookup and health checks fail, the Pepwave router will automatically perform
DNS lookups on public DNS servers. If the tests are successful, the WAN may not be down, but rather the target DNS server
malfunctioned. You will see the following warning message on the main page:

10.5 Dynamic DNS Settings

Pepwave routers are capable of registering the domain name relationships to dynamic DNS service
providers. Through registration with dynamic DNS service provider(s), the default public Internet IP
address of each WAN connection can be associated with a host name. With dynamic DNS service
enabled for a WAN connection, you can connect to your WAN's IP address from the external, even if its
IP address is dynamic. You must register for an account from the listed dynamic DNS service providers
before enabling this option.
If the WAN connection's IP address is a reserved private IP address (i.e., behind a NAT router), the
public IP of each WAN will be automatically reported to the DNS service provider.
Either upon a change in IP addresses or every 23 days without link reconnection, the Pepwave router
will connect to the dynamic DNS service provider to perform an IP address update within the provider's
records.
The settings for dynamic DNS service provider(s) and the association of hostname(s) are configured via
Network>WAN>Details>Dynamic DNS Service Provider/Dynamic DNS Settings.
