2 DYNAMIC DNS
2.1 INTRODUCTION
The DynDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) functionality allows the configuration of a
dynamic DNS service to ensure access to the Zenith35 base server’s RTK data stream
while it is using a dynamic IP address. It allows TCP/IP clients to use an internet domain
name (Host name) to address the Zenith35 sensor with a dynamic IP address.
The user needs to register at one of the offered DynDNS service providers to receive a
user name and password and create a unique host name to use, which can be used to
remotely access the sensor. Currently Zenith35 supports four DynDNS service providers.
In order to be able to use these services, please register and create an account at one of
the provider’s site:
Dyndns.com (http://dyn.com/dns/)
No-ip.com (http://www.noip.com/)
Easydns.com (https://www.easydns.com/)
Twodns.de (https://twodns.de/)
Please note that for the DynDNS base setup a special SIM card needs to be used, which
your cell phone network provider can setup. In order to be able to use your SIM card for
DynDNS, your provider needs to enable a service, which provides an APN (Access Point
Number) together with a range of open ports. Normally a SIM card with fixed IP address
supports this kind of setup. If you are not sure, please contact your provider and ask for
the current status of your SIM card.
