DX USER IP

DX User IP is reachable via the IP address of the DSL router, which is dynamically assigned by the provider. Since the administrator doesn't know the IP address assigned by the provider, DX User IP connects to a special dynamic DNS server in regular intervals and registers its IP address there. The administrator can contact this server as well and pick up the same IP address belonging to his card.

The administrator has to register a DX User IP that is supposed to take part in the service with the Dynamic DNS Server. He will get an approved nickname and password in return to the registration process. This account information is needed in order to determine the IP address of the registered DX User IP.

To enable the Dynamic DNS:

1. Ensure the DX User IP LAN interface is properly configured.

2. From the DX User IP menu choose Network Settings / Dynamic DNS. The Dynamic DNS Settings appear. See Figure 29.

Figure 29 Dynamic DNS Settings

Hostname - The Hostname registered during manual registration with the Dynamic DNS Server. Spaces are not allowed in the Hostname.

Username/Password – Fill in the Username and Password.

Check time - DX User IP card registers itself in the Dynamic DNS server at this time.
