Configuring dynamic DNS
To configure Dynamic DNS, go to Menu 1: General Setup and press
[SPACE BAR] to select Yes in the Edit Dynamic DNS field. Press [ENTER] to
display Menu 1.1— Configure Dynamic DNS (Figure 8). Not all models have
every field shown.
You must also configure a VPN branch office rule since
the BCM50a Integrated Router uses a VPN tunnel when
it relays DNS queries to the private DNS server. One of
the rule’s IP policies must include the LAN IP address of
the BCM50a Integrated Router as a local IP address and
the IP address of the DNS server as a remote IP
address.
A Private DNS entry with the IP address set to 0.0.0.0
changes to None after you click Apply. A duplicate
Private DNS entry changes to None after you save your
changes.
