DESCRIPTION
Enter your host name in this field.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select DynamicDNS if you have a dynamic
IP address(es). Select StaticDNS if you have a static IP address(s).
Select CustomDNS to have dyns.org provide DNS service for a domain name that
you already have from a source other than dyndns.org.
Your ZyWALL supports DYNDNS Wildcard. Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER]
to select Yes or No. This field is N/A when you choose DDNS client as your service
provider.
This field is only available when CustomDNS is selected in the DDNS Type field.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Yes. When Yes is selected,
www.dyndns.org/
traffic is redirected to a URL that you have previously specified
(see www.dyndns.org for details).
You can select Yes in either the Let DDNS Server Auto Detect field (recommended)
or the Use User-Defined field, but not both.
With the Let DDNS Server Auto Detect and Use User-Defined fields both set to No,
the DDNS server automatically updates the IP address of the host name(s) with the
ZyWALL's WAN IP address.
DDNS does not work with a private IP address. When both fields are set to No, the
ZyWALL must have a public WAN IP address in order for DDNS to work.
Only select this option when there are one or more NAT routers between the ZyWALL
and the DDNS server. Press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes and then press [ENTER] to
have the DDNS server automatically detect and use the IP address of the NAT router
that has a public IP address.
Note: The DDNS server may not be able to detect the proper IP
address if there is an HTTP proxy server between the ZyWALL
and the DDNS server.
Press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes and then press [ENTER] to update the IP address
of the host name(s) to the IP address specified below.
Only select Yes if the ZyWALL uses or is behind a static public IP address.
