Dynamic DNS

 

Dynamic DNS

Dynamic DNS is one of the

 

most effective ways of being

 

able to locate your network

 

from anywhere on the internet

 

anytime. Traditionally, IP Ad-

 

dresses and network informa-

 

tion from your ISP change from

 

time to time. When this change

 

happens you can no longer

 

access your network by IP

 

Address. Dynamic DNS is soft-

 

ware that runs on your router

 

that constantly sends network

updates to a third party server. This means that you will always be able to fi nd your network by way of a Dynamic DNS hostname; regardless of your IP Address. This feature is critical when using the Remote Gateway features of this router as it allows your users to always be able to fi nd and connect to your network via a vanity hostname. It is a requirement that you enroll in one of the two Dynamic DNS providers we offer. TZO (Paid Service) and DynDNS (Free Service) are two of the most popular Dynamic DNS providers. Please see their respective web pages (http://www.tzo.com

&http://www.dyndns.org) to create an account and learn more. Once you have created an account at one of the sites, then you can Enable the Dynamic DNS Function.

From the pull-down menu select the service you just subscribed to.
