ADVANCED > DDNS
The DI-604UP supports Dynamic Domain Name Service. Dynamic DNS allows a
dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in any of the
many domains, allowing access to a specific host from various locations on the
Internet. With this function enabled, remote access to a host will be allowed by
choosing a URL by using the pull-down menu. Because many ISPs assign public IP
addresses using DHCP, it can be difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using
the standard DNS. For example, if you are running a public web server or VPN
server on your LAN, DDNS ensures that the host can be located from the Internet if
the public IP address changes.
Note: DDNS requires that an account be setup with one of the supported DDNS
servers prior to engaging it on the router. This function will not work without an
accepted account with a DDNS server.
