DESCRIPTION
The options available in this field vary by DDNS provider.
Interface -The ISG50 uses the IP address of the specified interface. This option
appears when you select a specific interface in the Backup Binding Address
Interface field.
Auto -The DDNS server checks the source IP address of the packets from the
ISG50 for the IP address to use for the domain name. You may want to use this if
there are one or more NAT routers between the ISG50 and the DDNS server.
Note: The ISG50 may not determine the proper IP address if there is an HTTP
proxy server between the ISG50 and the DDNS server.
Custom - If you have a static IP address, you can select this to use it for the
domain name. The ISG50 still sends the static IP address to the DDNS server.
This field is only available when the IP Address is Custom. Type the IP address
to use for the domain name.
This option is only available with a DynDNS account.
Enable the wildcard feature to alias subdomains to be aliased to the same IP
address as your (dynamic) domain name. This feature is useful if you want to be
able to use, for example,
www.yourhost.dyndns.org
hostname.
This option is only available with a DynDNS account.
DynDNS can route e-mail for your domain name to a mail server (called a mail
exchanger). For example, DynDNS routes e-mail for
doe@yourhost.dyndns.org
to the host record specified as the mail exchanger.
If you are using this service, type the host record of your mail server here.
Otherwise leave the field blank.
See
www.dyndns.org
for more information about mail exchangers.
This option is only available with a DynDNS account.
Select this check box if you are using DynDNS's backup service for e-mail. With
this service, DynDNS holds onto your e-mail if your mail server is not available.
Once your mail server is available again, the DynDNS server delivers the mail to
you. See www.dyndns.org for more information about this service.
Click OK to save your changes back to the ISG50.
Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving.
