6.3 Dynamic DNS Configuration
To make a WEB server publicly accessible on the Internet, a static global IP address needs
to be assigned to the product. Even when there is an always-on connection, however,
disconnection does occur and the IP address may dynamically change after reconnection.
When Dynamic DNS is enabled, the IP address of the product is reported to a Dynamic
DNS server at regular intervals so that it can use the same static host name even after IP
has changed.
Caution:
- The product supports
www.dyndns.org
Dynamic DNS service.
Before enabling
Dynamic DNS configuration on the product, be sure to access
www.dyndns.org
and
register your user name, password and host name.
-
www.dyndns.org
is a free service as of November 2003. Note also that the configuration
procedure below for enabling Dynamic DNS is not required with some ISP's. Please
contact your ISP for more details.
