Section 3 - Configuration DDNS Setting The router supports DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service). The Dynamic DNS service allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in any of the many domains, allowing access to a specified host from various locations on the Internet. This is enabled to allow remote access to a host by clicking a hyperlinked URL in the form "hostname.dyndns.org". Many ISPs assign public IP addresses using DHCP, this can make it difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using standard DNS. If for example you are running a public web server or VPN server on your LAN, this ensures that the host can be located from the Internet if the public IP address changes. DDNS requires that an account be setup with one of the supported DDNS providers. Enable DDNS: Tick the Enable DDNS checkbox to enable support for DDNS. Server Select one of the DDNS registration Address: organizations form those listed in the pull- down menu. Available servers include dlinkddns.com(Free), DynDns.org(Custom), Dyn. Dns.org(free), and Dyn.Dns.org(Static). Host Name: Enter the host name of the DDNS server. Username: Enter the username given to you by your DDNS server.
