Dynamic Dns - D-Link DKVM-IP1 User Manual

Dynamic DNS

Dynamic DNS allows you to use a Dynamic DNS service to reach your DKVM-IP1 by an easy to
remember domain name rather than by its IP address. This can also be useful if your IP address
changes frequently, such as when using a DSL connection. When Dynamic DNS is enabled, the
DKVM-IP1 will connect to a DDNS service at regular intervals to update it with its current IP
address. The Remote user can then simply open a web browser to go to the easy to remember
address (e.g. mykvm.dyndns.org) provided by the DDNS service. There are many freely available
DDNS services available, such as www.dyndns.org, which is used in the example diagram below.
