4.3.3 DDNS

The 802.3bt PoE++ Managed Injector Hub offers the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) feature, which allows the

hosting of a website, FTP server, or e-mail server with a fixed domain name (named by yourself) and a dynamic IP

address, and then your friends can connect to your server by entering your domain name no matter what your IP address

is. Before using this feature, you need to sign up for DDNS service providers such as PLANET DDNS

(http://www.planetddns.com) and set up the domain name of your choice.

PLANET DDNS website provides a free DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) service for PLANET devices. Whether

the IP address used on your PLANET device supporting DDNS service is fixed or dynamic, you can easily connect the

devices anywhere on the Internet with a meaningful or easy-to-remember name you gave. PLANET DDNS provides two

types of DDNS services. One is PLANET DDNS and the other is PLANET Easy DDNS as shown in

Figure

4-2-4.

PLANET DDNS

For example, you've just installed a PLANET IP camera with dynamic IP like 210.66.155.93 in the network. You can name

this device as "Mycam1" and register a domain as Mycam1.planetddns.com at PLANET DDNS

(http://www.planetddns.com). Thus, you don't need to memorize the exact IP address but just the URL link:

Mycam1.planetddns.com.

PLANET Easy DDNS

PLANET Easy DDNS is an easy way to help user to get your Domain Name with just one click. You can just log in to the

Web Management Interface of your devices, say, your 802.3bt PoE++ Managed Injector Hub, and check the DDNS menu

and just enable it. You don't need to go to

http://www.planetddns.com

to apply for a new account. Once you enabled the

Easy DDNS, your

PLANET Network Device will use the format PLxxxxxx where xxxxxx is the last 6 characters of your MAC address that can

be found on the Web page or bottom label of the device. (For example, if the 802.3bt PoE++ Managed Injector Hub's MAC

address is A8-F7-E0-81-96-C9, it will be converted into pt8196c9.planetddns.com)
