• Current IP address: The IP address of the Digi device.

• Use the following dynamic DNS service: Disables DDNS updates, or selects the DDNS service provider to use to register the IP address of this Digi device. When you select a specific DDNS service provider, you must also provide the related account information for that service provider.

  To force an update request to be sent to a particular DDNS service.

  1. Select None to disable DDNS updates, and then click Apply to save that change.
  2. Select the DDNS service you wish to update.

  3. Click Apply to save that change.

     An update request will be sent to that service after you configure and validate the settings for the selected DDNS service.

• DynDNS.org DDNS Service: You must create your account at DynDNS.org before you can successfully register the IP address of your Digi device with their service. Please familiarize yourself with their service options and requirements, in order to most effectively use this feature of your Digi device.

  This DDNS service supports only public IP addresses. If you have a private IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), your update requests will be rejected.

  • Host and Domain Name: The fully qualified host and domain name you have registered with your service provide (for example: myhost.dyndns.net).
  • DynDNS User Name: The user name of the account you that you created with your service provider.
  • DynDNS Password: The password for the account you that you created with your service provider.
  • DynDNS DDNS System: The system for the account you that you created with your service provider. DynDNS.org supports a number of different services, which vary by the system you select. The available choices are:
    • Dynamic DNS
    • Static DNS
    • Custom DNS

  • Use Wildcards: Enables/disables wildcards for this host. The options are as follows:

    • Disable wildcards
    • Enable wildcards
    • No change to service setting

    According to wildcard documentation at DynDNS.org: “The wildcard aliases *.yourhost.ourdomain.tld to the same address as yourhost.ourdomain.tld.”

    Using this option in the settings for your Digi device has the same effect as selecting the wildcard option on the DynDNS.org website. To leave the wildcard option unchanged from the current selection on their web site, use the “no change” option in the device settings. Note that DynDNS.org support for this option may vary according to the DynDNS system you are registered to use.

  • Connection Method: The connection method to try when connecting to your service provider to register your IP address. DynDNS.org supports three methods to connect. The options are as follows:
    • Standard HTTP port 80
    • Alternate HTTP port 8245
    • Secure HTTPS port 443
