Working with DDNS
A Domain Name Service (DNS) translates human-readable host names, such as
www.promise.com, into IP addresses, such as 103.204.15.26, and back again.
A Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is required because in many cases, IP addresses
periodically change. The DDNS enables you to keep up-to-date and stay
connected.
There are two DDNS options:
• Provide your own DDNS server
• Register with an online DDNS service
A free online DDNS service is available at http://www.dyndns.com/.

Tree.
