Functional Notes

dyndns - The Dynamic DNSSM service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname in various domains. This allows your unit to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet. This service is provided for up to five hostnames.

dyndns-custom - DynDNS.org's Custom DNSSM service provides a full DNS solution, giving you complete control over an entire domain name. A web-based interface provides two levels of control over your domain, catering to average or power users. Five globally redundant DNS servers ensure that your domain will always resolve.

A choice of two interfaces is available. The basic interface is designed for most users. It comes preconfigured for the most common configuration and allows for easy creation of most common record types. The advanced interface is designed for system administrators with a solid DNS background, and provides layout and functionality similar to a BIND zone file allowing for the creation of nearly any record type.

Custom DNSSM can be used with both static and dynamic IPs, and has the same automatic update capability through Custom DNS-aware clients as Dynamic DNS.

dyndns-static - The Static DNS service is similar to Dynamic DNS service, in that it allows a hostname such as yourname.dyndns.org to point to your IP address. Unlike a Dynamic DNS host, a Static DNS host does not expire after 35 days without updates, but updates take longer to propagate though the DNS system. This service is provided for up to five hostnames.

If your IP address doesn't change often or at all, but you still want an easy name to remember it by (without having to purchase your own domain name) Static DNS service is ideal for you.

If you would like to use your own domain name (such as yourname.com) you need Custom DNS service which also provides full dynamic and static IP address support.
