5.3 Dynamic DNS
DDNS makes your computer accessible from the internet under a
constant host name even if your IP address changes dynamically.
The dynamic change of the IP address occurs regularly after fixed
periods of time and is enforced via a short connection interruption
by your ISP. When getting reconnected, a new IP address is
assigned to your computer by your ISP.
With its integrated DDNS client, the HorstBox automatically trans-
mits the new IP address to the DDNS service.
The usage of DDNS requires a registration at a DNS provider.
