4.3 DDNS

Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a term used for the updating in real time of Internet Domain Name System (DNS) name servers. 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; 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 this 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. Thus, uninterrupted
access to devices and services whose numeric IP address may change is maintained. (You need to have an account with one of the Service
Providers in the drop-down menu first.)
