DYNAMIC DNS
The Dynamic DNS protocol associate a DNS name to an IP address of the same Host, even if the last
change through time.
Below you find the main commands.
To configure the username to be used for the DDNS Server authentication, use:
set ddns username <username>
To set the authentication password:
set ddns password <password>
To configure the Dynamic DNS server:
set ddns system <ddns-server>
where <ddns-server> can be:
dyndns@dyndns.org
statdns@dyndns.org
customdns@dyndns.org
default@no-ip.com
default@zoneedit.com
To set the DNS name associated with host:
set ddns alias <dns-name>
To configure the update period of the DNS:
set ddns update-period <value>
In order for the mechanism to work properly on the router, you have to set a DNS address that
allows to find the IP address associated to the system in use. To do that, use:
set dns <dns-server>
Below you see a complete example:
set dns 8.8.8.8
set ddns username mario.picone@tiesse.com
set ddns password not-so-secret123
set ddns system default@no-ip.com
set ddns alias mario010203@ddns.net
set ddns update-period 3600
set ddns on
where <remote-ipaddr> is the IP address of the remote log server.
