Access the VMG Using DDNS
If you connect your VMG to the Internet and it uses a dynamic WAN IP address, it is inconvenient
for you to manage the device from the Internet. The VMG’s WAN IP address changes dynamically.
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) allows you to access the VMG using a domain name.
To use this feature, you have to apply for DDNS service at www.dyndns.org.
This tutorial covers:
Registering a DDNS Account on www.dyndns.org
Configuring DDNS on Your VMG
Testing the DDNS Setting
Note: If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use DDNS.
4.7.1
Registering a DDNS Account on www.dyndns.org

Add a new DDNS host name. This tutorial uses the following settings as an example.
• Hostname:
zyxelrouter.dyndns.org
Service Type:
Host with IP address
IP Address: Enter the WAN IP address that your VMG is currently using. You can find the IP
address on the VMG’s Web Configurator
