4.5.12 Dynamic DNS
Dynamic DNS The Dynamic DNS service allows you to assign a dynamic DNS host name (for
example john.dyndns.org) to a broadband connection even if it is using a dynamic
IP address. As soon as the device gets a new IP address, the dynamic DNS server
updates its entry to the new IP address.
