User`s manual
The SP1200A is reachable via the IP address of the DSL router, which is
dynamically assigned by the provider. Since the administrator does not know
the IP address assigned by the provider, the SP1200A connects to a special
dynamic DNS server in regular intervals and registers its IP address there. The
administrator may contact this server as well and pick up the same IP address
belonging to his card. The administrator has to register an SP1200A that is
supposed to take part in the service with the Dynamic DNS Server and assign
a certain hostname to it. He will get a nickname and a password in return to
the registration process. This account information together with the hostname
is needed in order to determine the IP address of the registered SP1200A.
Steps for Setting UP DDNS:
¾ Make sure that the LAN interface of the SP1200A is properly configured.
¾ Enter the Dynamic DNS Settings configuration dialog as shown in
Figure.
¾ Enable Dynamic DNS and change the settings according to your needs
(see below).
