Dynamic DNS Client
Each time the 6381 connects to the Internet; your ISP assigns a different IP address to the 6381.
In order for you or other users to access your 6381 from the WAN-side, you need to manually
track the IP that is currently used. The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to register your 6381
with a DNS server and access your 6381 each time using the same host name.
The Dynamic DNS Client page allows you to enable/disable the Dynamic DNS feature.
