5.3.2.3 DDNS (Dynamic DNS)

DDNS is a system which allows the domain name data held in a name server to be updated in real time. The most common use for DDNS is allowing an Internet domain name to be assigned to a computer with a varying/dynamic IP Address. This makes it possible for other sites on the Internet to establish connection to the machine without needing to track the IP Address themselves.
