Using a dynamic DNS service
Dynamic DNS is an external service provided by a third party. To set up
Dynamic DNS you must register with this third party provider and obtain a
user name, a password, and a domain name.
Dynamic DNS lets you use a domain name (which will not change) instead of
an Internet IP address (which may change each time you connect to your ISP’s
server) to connect to your virtual servers.
