Each field is described in the following table.
6.4 DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
Dynamic DNS allows you to map your current dynamic IP address with one or many dynamic
DNS services so that anyone can contact you. SIP IP phones can access the SIP server on the
X6004 using a domain name (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where myhost is a name of your
choice) that will never change instead of using an IP address that changes each time you
reconnect.
First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. This is
for people with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that would still like to have a
domain name. The Dynamic DNS service provider will give you a password or key.
