4.2 DDNS
Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a term used for the updating in real time of Internet Domain Name System (DNS)
name servers. We use a numeric IP address allocated by Internet Service Provider (ISP) to connect to
Internet. The address may either be stable ("static"), or may change from one session on the Internet to the
next ("dynamic"). However, a numeric address is inconvenient to remember and an address which changes
unpredictably makes connection impossible. The DDNS provider allocates a static host name to the user.
Whenever the user is allocated a new IP address it is communicated to the DDNS provider by software
running on a computer or network device at that address. The provider distributes the association between
the host name and the address to the Internet's DNS servers so that they may resolve DNS queries. The
result is uninterrupted access to devices and services whose numeric IP address may change is maintained.
