domain name linked to a changing IP Address. This is a useful
feature since many computers do not use a static IP address.
The DI-624M supports VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-
through for both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) and
IPSec (IP Security). Once VPN pass-through is enabled, there
is no need to open up virtual services. Multiple VPN connections
can be made through the DI-624M. This is useful when you
have many VPN clients on the LAN network.
