8.6.6 Dynamic DNS
Dynamic domain name resolution (DDNS) is mainly used to achieve resolution between
fixed domain names and dynamic IP addresses. For a user that uses a dynamic IP address,
after the user obtains a new IP address in the Internet access, the dynamic domain name
software installed in the host sends the IP address to the DDNS server provided by the
DDNS service provider and updates the domain name resolution database. When another
user on the Internet tries accessing the domain name, the dynamic domain name
resolution server returns the correct IP address.
Choose Network Application > Dynamic DNS and the Dynamic DNS page is displayed.
Use a Dynamic DNS Service: If you have registered with a DDNS service provider,
select Use a Dynamic DNS Service.
Service Provider: Select your DDNS service provider.
Host Name: Enter the host name or domain name provided by your DDNS service
provider.
User Name: Enter the name of your DDNS account.
Password: Enter the password of the DDNS account.
After finishing, click Apply to apply the settings.
8.6.7 Static Routes
Static routing is a special type of routing that can be applied in a network to reduce the
problem of routing selection and data flow overload caused by routing selection so as to
improve the packets forwarding speed. You can set the destination IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway to specify a routing rule. The destination IP address and subnet mask
determine a destination network or host to which the router sends packets through the
gateway.
