Dynamic DNS

The SL4020 supports Dynamic DNS for use in environments where the IP address of LAN IP interface is not assigned statically (i.e. permanently) but instead is assigned dynamically using protocols like DHCP.

With a statically assigned IP addresses, DNS is used to establish a fixed relationship between an IP address a DNS name (example: 209.22.110.3 = joephone@patton.com). The DNS name allows the IP device, like a phone attached to an SL4020, to be found by the DNS name (joephone@patton.com) anywhere on the Internet.

Prior to Dynamic DNS, dynamically assigned IP address changes could not be automatically reflected in DNS. As a result, VoIP devices like the SL4020 could not always be located on the Internet by DNS name. This is especially true for cable modem and ADSL services that use DHCP to assign addresses to customers.

With Dynamic DNS, the SmartLink M-ATA will inform the dynamic DNS server of its IP address when it receives a new or dynamically assigned IP address from the network. This allows the SL4020 to always be found using a fixed DNS name when the IP address changes. With Dynamic DNS cable modem and ADSL users can be found on the Internet using a DNS name.
