Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS (DDNS) feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc…) using a domain name that you
have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service
Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can enter in your domain name
to connect to your server no matter what your IP address is.

Check the box to Enable DDNS for IPv6 Hosts.
Enter the IPv6 Address of your computer/server in
your local network. You can select a computer/server
