Dynamic DNS Settings
The Peplink Balance allows registering domain name relationships to dynamic DNS service providers.
Through registration with dynamic DNS service provider(s), the default public Internet IP address of each
WAN connection can be associated with a hostname. With dynamic DNS service enabled for a WAN
connection, you can connect to your WAN's IP address externally even if its IP address is dynamic. You
must register for an account from the listed dynamic DNS service providers before enabling this option.
If the WAN connection's IP address is a reserved private IP address (i.e., behind a NAT router), the public
IP of each WAN will be automatically reported to the DNS service provider.
Either upon a change in IP addresses or every 23 days without link reconnection, the Peplink Balance will
connect to the dynamic DNS service provider to
update the provider’s
IP address records.
The settings for dynamic DNS service provider(s) and the association of hostname(s) are configured via
Network>Interfaces>WAN>Dynamic DNS Settings
.
If your desired provider is not listed, you may check with
DNS-O-Matic
. This service supports updating 30
other dynamic DNS service providers. (Note: Peplink is not affiliated with DNS-O-Matic.)

Dynamic DNS Settings
Service Provider
This setting specifies the dynamic DNS service provider to be used for the WAN.
Supported providers are:
changeip.com
dyndns.org
no-ip.org
tzo.com
DNS-O-Matic
Select
Disabled
to disable this feature.
User ID / User / Email
This setting specifies the registered user name for the dynamic DNS service.
Password / Pass / TZO
Key
This setting specifies the password for the dynamic DNS service.
Hosts / Domain
This setting specifies a list of hostnames or domains to be associated with the public
Internet IP address of the WAN connection.
Important Note
In order to use dynamic DNS services, appropriate hostname registration(s), as well as a valid account with a
supported dynamic DNS service provider, are required.
A dynamic DNS update is performed whenever a WAN’s IP address
is changed, such as when an IP is changed
after a DHCP IP refresh or reconnection.
Due to dynamic DNS service providers
policies, a dynamic DNS host expires automatically when the host record
has not been not updated for a long time. Therefore, the Peplink Balance performs an update every 23 days, even if
a WAN’s IP address did
not change.

Bandwidth Bonding SpeedFusion
TM
(Available on the Peplink Balance 210+ and MediaFast 200+)
Peplink Balance Bandwidth Bonding SpeedFusion
TM
functionality securely connects one or more branch
offices to your company's main headquarters or to other branches. The data, voice, and video
communications between these locations are kept confidential across the public Internet.
The Bandwidth Bonding SpeedFusion
TM
of the Peplink Balance is specifically designed for multi-WAN
environments. The Peplink Balance can bond all WAN connections
’ bandwidth
for routing SpeedFusion
TM
traffic. Unless all the WAN connections of one site are down, the Peplink Balance can keep the VPN up
and running. Bandwidth Bonding is enabled by default.

SpeedFusion
TM
Settings
The Peplink Balance 380, 580, 710, 1350, and 2500, as well as the MediaFast 200 and 500, support
making multiple SpeedFusion
TM
connections with a remote Peplink Balance 210, 310, 380, 580, 710,
1350, 2500, MediaFast 200 or 500, or a Pepwave MAX mobile router. The Peplink Balance 210 and 310
support making two SpeedFusion
TM
connections with a remote Peplink Balance 210, 310, 380, 580, 710,
1350, 2500, MediaFast 200 or 500, or a Pepwave MAX mobile router.
A Peplink Balance that supports multiple VPN connections can act as a central hub which connects
branch offices. For example, if branch office A and branch office B make VPN connections to
headquarters C, both branch office LAN subnets and the subnets behind them(i.e., static routes) will also
be advertised to the headquarters C and the other branches. So branch office A will be able to access
branch office B via headquarters C in this case.
The local LAN subnet and subnets behind the LAN (defined under
Static Route
on the LAN settings
page) will be advertised to the VPN. All VPN members (branch offices and headquarters) will be able to
route to local subnets.
Note that all LAN subnets and the subnets behind them must be unique. Otherwise, VPN members will
not be able to access each other.
