2.5.9 UPnP
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses TCP/IP
for simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. An UPnP device can
dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about
other devices on the network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly and
automatically.
Select
UPnP
from the
Network Management
menu,
then
UPnP
screen page appears.
UPnP Setting

2.5.10 DDNS
The WLAN Gateway supports DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service). The Dynamic DNS
service allows a dynamic public IP address to be associated with a static host name in any
domains, allowing access to a specified host from various locations on the Internet. This is
enabled to allow remote access to a host by clicking a hyperlinked URL in the form
“hostname.dyndns.org”. Many ISPs assig
n public IP addresses using DHCP that makes it
difficult to locate a specific host on the LAN using standard DNS. For example, when you
are running a public web server or VPN server on your LAN, this ensures that the host can
be located from the Internet if the public IP address changes. DDNS requires that an
account be setup with one of the supported DDNS providers.
Select
DDNS
from the
Network Management
menu,
then
DDNS
screen page appears.
DDNS:
Enable DDNS global setting, if checked.
DDNS Server type:
Select one of the DDNS registration organizations form those listed in
the pull-down menu. Available servers include Dyn.Dns.org and no-ip.com.
DDNS User name:
Enter the username given to you by your DDNS server.
DDNS password:
Enter the password or key given to you by your DDNS server.
Confirmed password:
Re-enter DDNS password.
Host name to register:
Enter the host name of DDNS server.
