DDNS
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) allows you to update your current dynamic IP address with one or
many dynamic DNS services so that anyone can contact you (in NetMeeting, CU-SeeMe,
etc.). You can also access your FTP server or Web site on your own computer using a domain
name (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where myhost is a name of your choice) that will never
change instead of using an IP address that changes each time you reconnect. Your friends or
relatives will always be able to call you even if they don't know your IP address.
First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. This is
for people with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that would still like to have a
domain name. The Dynamic DNS service provider will give you a password or key.
Note:
You must go to the Dynamic DNS service provider’s website and register a user
account and a domain name before you can use the Dynamic DNS service with
your P-336M.
