When a DDNS client contacts a PeanutHull DDNS server by using TCP, the URL address for update
requests should be configured as:
oray://username:password@phservice2.oray.net
Replace the parameters username and password in the URL with your actual login ID and password
registered at the DDNS service provider's website.
members.3322.org and phservice2.oray.net are the domain names of DDNS servers. The domain
names of PeanutHull DDNS servers can be phservice2.oray.net, phddns60.oray.net, client.oray.net,
ph031.oray.net, and so on. Determine the domain name in the URL according to the actual situation.
The system automatically fills <h> with the FQDN that is specified when the DDNS policy is applied to
the interface and automatically fills <a> with the primary IP address of the interface to which the DDNS
policy is applied. You may also manually specify an FQDN and an IP address in <h> and <a>,
respectively. After that, the FQDN that is specified when the DDNS policy is applied becomes ineffective.
HP recommends you do not change <h> and <a> in the URL address because your configuration might
be incorrect. For more information about applying DDNS policies, see "Applying the DDNS policy to an
in
terface."
NOTE:
The FQDN is the only identification of a node in the network. An FQDN consists of a local host name and
a parent domain name and can be translated into an IP address.
Configuration prerequisites
Visit the website of a DDNS service provider, register an account, and apply for a domain name for the
DDNS client. When the DDNS client updates the mapping between the domain name and the IP address
through the DDNS server, the DDNS server checks whether the account information is correct and
whether the domain name to be updated belongs to the account.
Configuration procedure
To configure a DDNS policy:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Create a DDNS policy and
enter its view.
ddns policy policy-name By default, no DDNS policy is created.
3. Specify a URL address for
DDNS update requests.
url request-url
By default, no URL address is specified for
DDNS update requests.
4. Associate an SSL client policy
with the DDNS policy.
ssl client policy
policy-name
Optional.
By default, no SSL client policy is
associated with the DDNS policy.
This step is only effective and a must for
HTTP-based DDNS update requests. For
SSL client policy configuration, see
"Configuring SSL."
5. Specify the interval for sending
update requests.
interval days [ hours
[ minutes ] ]
