CHAPTER 11
Dynamic DNS
11.1 Overview
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) services let you use a fixed domain name with a dynamic
IP address. Users can always use the same domain name instead of a different dynamic IP address
that changes each time to connect to the NBG-418N v2 or a server in your network.
Note: The NBG-418N v2 must have a public global IP address and you should have your
registered DDNS account information on hand.
11.2 Dynamic DNS Screen
To configure your NBG-418N v2’s DDNS, click Network > DDNS.
