For this example, following dynamic DNS subscription is assumed at DynDNS (www.dyndns.org):

Adding a dynamic DNS host name

Adding a dynamic DNS client

Depending on your dynamic DNS subscription some other, more advanced options may be required or available, e.g. multiple host names, the Mail Exchanger (MX) host name, update interval, etc.

In a first step you must specify for which hostname(s) you want to enable the dynamic DNS service for. According to the Example dynamic DNS subscription information, following configuration must be done:

=>:dyndns host add group=MyDynDNSHost name=johndoe.dyndns.org

To allow multiple host names to be assigned to the same dynamic DNS service, host names always reside in a group. You are free to choose a group name, it is only used for referring to the group during CLI configuration.

Add a dynamic DNS client entry:

=>:dyndns add name=MyDynDNS
