Mitel SME Server V5 with ServiceLink manual Configuring Dynamic DNS

Chapter 6. Installing And Configuring Your SME Server V5 with ServiceLink Software

If you have a static IP address and your ISP does not offer DHCP or PPPoE, then your ISP will give you the static IP address, subnet mask (or netmask), and the gateway IP address of the device that your server should connect to in order to communicate with the Internet. Assuming you have this information on hand, you can go ahead and select Option 4. Successive screens will prompt you to enter each parameter.

6.11.4. Configuring Dynamic DNS

If you choose either of the DHCP options or PPPoE, you will be presented with an additional screen where you can choose which dynamic DNS service you wish to use.

The server is pre-configured to operate with four dynamic DNS organizations: yi.org (http://www.yi.org/), dyndns.com (http://www.dyndns.com/), dyndns.org (http://www.dyndns.org/), and tzo.com (http://www.tzo.com/). (You can elect to use a different service, but doing so would require some customization of the server.) Once the service is selected, the subsequent two screens will prompt you to enter your account name and the password for your account. (These two parameters would be given to you by the service. Note that the dynamic DNS service may place restrictions on which domain name you can use for your company.) Please read Appendix B on dynamic DNS for more information about whether a dynamic DNS is right for you.

6.12. Configuring the Server for Server and Gateway Mode - Dialup Access

If you select dialup access, successive screens will ask you for the following information:

•information regarding the modem connection with your ISP, including the serial port your modem is connected to 1

1.Your modem documentation may indicate which serial port is used by the modem. You may also be able to visually identify which port your modem uses.
