Raven X EV-DO for Verizon - User Guide, version 2.34 16
IP Manager and DNS
PPP-Peer
Note: If you will be using your Raven X to communicate with another AirLink
modem and both are using IP Manager to translate dynamic IP addresses to
domain names, it is recommended that you set *DNSUSER to the IP address for
IP Manager. IP Manager’s updates occur more frequently than Verizon’s DNS
servers decreasing the time between IP address change and address resolution.
Likewise, if your Raven X routinely needs to contact another modem or device
with a Dynamic DNS domain and that modem or device frequently changes its IP
address, you may need to set *DNSUPDATE for frequent updates.
The Raven X uses the unqualified domain name of “ppp-peer” when it is in PPP or SLIP address
mode to resolve the address of the device or computer connected via PPP or SLIP address. If the
Raven X is not in PPP or SLIP address mode, “ppp-peer” will resolve to 0.0.0.0.
