Enter your full DDNS domain name (e.g. myrouter.dyndns.org).

Select the connection to which you would like to couple the DDNS service. The DDNS service will

only use the chosen device, unless failover is enabled. In this case, the failed-to device will be used

instead (assuming its route rules consent), until the chosen device is up again.

Select your DDNS service provider. The screen will refresh, displaying the parameters required by each

provider. The provider depicted herein is dyndns, which includes all available parameters.

Enter your DDNS user name.

Enter your DDNS password.

If you wish to temporarily take your site offline (prevent traffic from reaching your DDNS domain

name), check this box to enable redirection of DNS requests to an alternative URL, predefined in your

DDNS account. The availability of this feature depends on your account’s level and type of service.

With the gateway versions that support Secure Socket Layer (SSL), secured DDNS services are accessed

using HTTPS. Upon connection, the gateway validates the DDNS server’s certificate. Use this entry to

choose the certificate’s validation method.
