dynamicdns

Sunil Mohan Adapa requested to merge steglicd:dynamicdns into master

Created by: steglicd

Would be nice if freedombox could be reached via DNS resolved hostname (even if freedombox is connected via dynamic IP).

For this reason I'm implementing a ez-ipupdate module.

The module should detect the current WAN IP (even if freedombox is connected behind NAT router) and push the IP to a open source GnudIP server if a change is detected.

IPv6 and other Server types than gnudip should also be included later.

GnudIP vs. update URL:

  • Gnudip is more safe (md5 hashed and salted password transmission prevent replay attacks)
  • update URL is more generic (the most common dynamic DNS Service provides a URL to update the IP)
