Dynamic DNS (DynDNS.org)
Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a service that maps internet domain names to IP addresses. DDNS Service Provider
provides the host name/domain name to the internet devices and also embeds DDNS client in the internet device.
By doing so, whenever a new IP Address is assigned to the internet host, the DDNS client running in the internet
host updates its new IP address in the Dynamic DNS server.
When the Ethernet Port of SETU VFXTH is assigned a dynamic IP, its new IP Address needs to be updated
regularly with the various devices or networks which utilise the Ethernet Port settings to function. Dynamic DNS
resolves this by mapping a domain name to the Ethernet Port IP Address, which SETU VFXTH can update in the
Dynamic DNS Server.
Once the IP Address of the system is updated in the DNS server, any caller on the IP network can reach to the
system by dialing the host name/domain of the system
