DESCRIPTION

 

 

IP Address Update Policy:

You can select Yes in either the DDNS Server Auto Detect IP Address field (recommended) or the Use Specified IP Address field, but not both.

With the DDNS Server Auto Detect IP Address field and Use Specified IP Address fields both set to No, the DDNS server automatically updates the IP address of the host name(s) with the Prestige’s WAN IP address.

DDNS does not work with a private IP address. When both fields are set to No, the Prestige must have a public WAN IP address in order for DDNS to work.
