Goal: Open the FTP server to internet users and enable yourself to access the resources of the FTP
server from the internet using a domain name when you are not at home.
Solution: You can configure the DDNS plus port forwarding functions to reach the goal.
Assume that the information of the FTP server includes:
− IP address: 192.168.1.136
− Service port: 21
The information of the registered DDNS service:
− Service provider: DynDNS.org
− User name: JohnDoe
− Password: JohnDoe123
− Domain name: o2849z7222.zicp.vip
Please ensure that the ONT obtains a public IP address. This function may not work on a host with an IP
address of a private network or an intranet IP address assigned by ISPs that start with 100. Common
IPv4 addresses are classified into class A, class B and class C. Private IP addresses of class A range from
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255. Private IP addresses of class B range from 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255.
Private IP addresses of class C range from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255.
Configuring procedure:
Step 1 Log in to the web UI of the ONT.
Step 2 Add a Dynamic DNS rule.
