Dynamic DNS

The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc...) using a domain name that you have purchased (www.xxx.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can enter your host name to connect to your game server no matter what your IP address is.

DDNS - This stands for Dynamic DNS. By creating a static hostname, users will be able to point to this in order to access a dynamic IP address from anywhere in the world.

To use this feature, you must first have a Dynamic DNS account from one of the providers in the drop down menu

Note: In some cases DDNS service requires you to open the WAN http service in Maintenance -> Access Control -> Services.
