DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a method of keeping a domain name linked to a changing IP Address.

The DDNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc.) using a domain name that you have

purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet

Service Providers assign dynamic IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can enter in your domain

name to connect to your server no matter what your IP address is.
