Configuring Remote Extension with DDNS

 

Introduction

Yeastar S-Series IPPBX supports DDNS which allows us to register the remote extension without having a static public IP. Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a way to update the Domain Name System (DNS) to point to a changing IP address on the Internet in real time.

Yeaster S-Series IPPBX supports the following DDNS providers:

  • dyndns.org
  • freedns.afraid.org
  • www.no-ip.com
  • www.zoneedit.com
  • www.oray.com
  • 3322.org

 

Register DDNS Account

Register a DDNS account from above supported DDNS servers, and below I will use www.no-ip.com as the example.

If you already have an account please skip this step.

Step 1. Access to this link: https://www.noip.com/sign-up  to Create a free account

You just need fill in the hostname and don't need care about the IPv4 Address.

If you create host successfully, you will see the following page, there is a free account so requires you to confirm your hostname every 30 days, if you don't want to be bothered you can upgrade account to Enhanced.
