Navigate to the zone you wish to connect with Dynamic URL. Find or create an A or AAAA record, that is going to be dynamically updated, and click on the arrows icon (Active Dynamic URL). Then, click on Activate it button and a new window will appear, with example scripts, used for record update. Depending on the record type, A or AAAA, copy the first example, which looks like this:
https://ipv4.cloudns.net/api/dynamicURL/?q=your-string
https://ipv6.cloudns.net/api/dynamicURL/?q=your-string
Notes:
These are sample URLs. You should use the URL's from your own records.
IPv6 is not supported by all DD-WRT versions by default. If your current firmware doesn't support IPv6, then an additional script should be placed in your Administration >> Management module. There are various open-source scripts available at world wide web. In this article, we will focus on DDNS using IPv4.
Once you have the Dynamic DNS update URL, open your DD-WRT Control Panel. Navigate “Setup” >> “DDNS”. In the “Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)” section, please configure as follows:
DDNS Service: Custom
DYNDNS Server ipv4.cloudns.net
Username: yourmail@mail.com
Password: ********
Hostname: hostname.cloudns.net
URL: https://ipv4.cloudns.net/api/dynamicURL/?q=YOUR-STRING-HERE
Notes:
For “Username” and “Password” you must use your ClouDNS login credentials.
In the “Hostname” field you must type the hostname, for which the Dynamic DNS feature is activated.
