3.2.3 Advanced Setup >> Dynamic DNS

The gateway offers a Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) feature. The DDNS lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or other servers behind the gateway. Before you can use this feature, you need to sign up for DDNS service at www.dyndns.org or other DDNS service providers.

Enable Dynamic DNS. Check the box to enable the DDNS service.

DDNS Account. The hostname you want to use. Type the first part of the name in the input box, and select the second part of the name from the pull-down menu. This allows you to have anything.dyndns.org, anythingelse.homeunix.com, etc.

User Name, Password. These DDNS services require you to login, please enter your DDNS registered name and password here.

Wild Card Enable. If you want 'anything_here.yourhost.dyndns.org' to work (i.e. for addresses like www.yourhost.dyndns.org), check the Enable Wildcard box.

Mail Exchanger. If you wish to use a mail exchanger, put its hostname into the Mail Ex- changer field.

Backup MX. If you need to backup the Mail Exchanger's address while you login to the DDNS service provider every time, please click the checkbox.

Update Status. Returns the status of your DDNS service- please check the status of the DDNS service here. If you received an error message from a problem other than your configuration, please contact your DDNS service provider. Please refer to the Appendix E for all Update Status messages.

Click the "Update" to check your current status of the DDNS service, or click "Refresh" to refresh the web page displayed.
