Dynamic DNS
This enables the Dynamic DNS service. This requires a configured DNS server IP
address.
Dynamic DNS server
This is the server name where DKVM-IP8 switch registers itself in regular intervals. Currently,
this is a fixed setting since only dyndns.org is supported for now.
Hostname
This is the hostname of the DKVM-IP8 switch that is provided by the Dynamic DNS Server. (use
the whole name including the domain, e.g. testserver.dyndns.org , not just the actual
hostname).
Username
You have registered this username during your manual registration with the Dynamic
DNS Server. Spaces are not allowed in the Nickname. Password
You have used this password during your manual registration with the Dynamic DNS Server.
Check time
The DKVM-IP8 switch registers itself for initiating the IP address of DKVM-IP8 stored in the
Dynamic DNS server at this time.
Check interval
This is the interval for reporting again to the Dynamic DNS server for updating the IP
address associated with the Domain Name of the DKVM-IP8 switch.
Warning: The DKVM-IP8 switch has its own independent real time clock. Make sure the
time setting of the DKVM-IP8 switch is correct. (see the Sectio n called Date And Time )
