Using a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)

Many ISPs provide connectivity to their customers using dynamic instead of static IP addressing. This means that a user’s IP address does not remain constant over time, which presents a challenge for gateways attempting to establish VPN connectivity.

A Dynamic DNS (DDNS) service allows a user whose public IP address is dynamically assigned to be located by a host or domain name. It provides a central public database where information (such as email addresses, host names, and IP addresses) can be stored and retrieved. Now, a gateway can be configured to use a third-party service instead of a permanent and unchanging IP address to establish bidirectional VPN connectivity.

To use DDNS, you must register with a DDNS service provider. Some DDNS service providers include:

DynDNS: www.dyndns.org

TZO.com: netgear.tzo.com

ngDDNS: ngddns.iego.net

In this example, Gateway A is configured using a sample FQDN provided by a DDNS service provider. In this case we established the hostname dgnd3300v2.dyndns.org for Gateway A using the DynDNS service. Gateway B uses the DDNS service provider when establishing a VPN tunnel.
