2. If

is checked, the profile is administratively enabled, and
the SonicWALL UTM appliance takes the actions defined in the

section on the

tab.
3. If
Use Online Settings
is checked, the profile is administratively online.
4. Enter a name to assign to the DDNS entry in the
Profile Name
field. This can be any
value used to identify the entry in the
Dynamic DNS Settings
table.
5. In the
Profile
page, select the
Provider
from the drop-down list at the top of the
page. This example uses
DynDNS.org
. Dyndns.org requires the selection of a
service. This example assumes you have created a dynamic service record with
dyndns.org.
6. Enter your dyndns.org username and password in the
User Name
and
Password
fields.
7. Enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the hostname you registered with
dyndns.org. Make sure you provide the same hostname and domain as you
configured.
8. You may optionally select
Enable Wildcard
and/or configure an MX entry in the
Exchanger
field.
9. Click the
Advanced
tab. You can typically leave the default settings on this page.
10. The
On-line Settings
section provides control over what address is registered with
the dynamic DNS provider. The options are:
Let the server detect IP Address
- The dynamic DNS provider determines the
IP address based upon the source address of the connection. This is the most
common setting.
Automatically set IP Address to the Primary WAN Interface IP Address
-
This will cause the SonicWALL device to assert its WAN IP address as the
registered IP address, overriding auto-detection by the dynamic DNS server.
Useful if detection is not working correctly.
Specify IP Address manually
- Allows for the IP address to be registered to be
manually specified and asserted.
11. The
Off-line Settings
section controls what IP Address is registered with the
dynamic DNS service provider if the dynamic DNS entry is taken off-line locally
(disabled) on the SonicWALL. The options are:
Do nothing
- the default setting. This allows the previously registered address to
remain current with the dynamic DNS provider.
Use the Off-Line IP Address previously configured at Provider’s site - If your
provider supports manual configuration of Off-Line Settings, you can select this
option to use those settings when this profile is taken administratively offline.
12. Click the
OK
button.
