In order to do so, VyOS includes ddclient_, a Perl script written for -this only one purpose. - -ddclient_ uses two methods to update a DNS record. The first one will send -updates directly to the DNS daemon, in compliance with :rfc:`2136`. The second -one involves a third party service, like DynDNS.com or any other similar -website. This method uses HTTP requests to transmit the new IP address. You -can configure both in VyOS. - -Configuration -============= - -:rfc:`2136` Based ------------------ - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> - - Create new :rfc:`2136` DNS update configuration which will update the IP - address assigned to `<interface>` on the service you configured under - `<service-name>`. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> key <keyfile> - - File identified by `<keyfile>` containing the secret RNDC key shared with - remote DNS server. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> server <server> - - Configure the DNS `<server>` IP/FQDN used when updating this dynamic - assignment. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> zone <zone> - - Configure DNS `<zone>` to be updated. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> record <record> - - Configure DNS `<record>` which should be updated. This can be set multiple - times. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 <service-name> ttl <ttl> - - Configure optional TTL value on the given resource record.

Just create a new - config node: ``set service dns dynamic interface <interface> rfc2136 - <other-service-name>`` - -HTTP based services -------------------- - -VyOS is also able to use any service relying on protocols supported by ddclient. - -To use such a service, one must define a login, password, one or multiple -hostnames, protocol and server. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> service <service> host-name <hostname> - - Setup the dynamic DNS hostname `<hostname>` associated with the DynDNS - provider identified by `<service>` when the IP address on interface - `<interface>` changes. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> service <service> login <username> - - Configure `<username>` used when authenticating the update request for - DynDNS service identified by `<service>`. - For Namecheap, set the <domain> you wish to update. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> service <service> password <password> - - Configure `<password>` used when authenticating the update request for - DynDNS service identified by `<service>`. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> service <service> protocol <protocol> - - When a ``custom`` DynDNS provider is used the protocol used for communicating - to the provider must be specified under `<protocol>`. See the embedded - completion helper for available protocols. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> service <service> server <server> - - When a ``custom`` DynDNS provider is used the `<server>` where update - requests are being sent to must be specified. - -Example: -^^^^^^^^ - -Use DynDNS as your preferred provider: - -.. code-block:: none - - set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service dyndns - set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service dyndns login my-login - set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service dyndns password my-password - set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service dyndns host-name my-dyndns-hostname - -.. note:: Multiple services can be used per interface. Just specify as many - serives per interface as you like! - -Running Behind NAT ------------------- - -By default, ddclient_ will update a dynamic dns record using the IP address -directly attached to the interface. If your VyOS instance is behind NAT, your -record will be updated to point to your internal IP. - -ddclient_ has another way to determine the WAN IP address. This is controlled -by: - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> use-web url <url> - - Use configured `<url>` to determine your IP address. ddclient_ will load - `<url>` and tries to extract your IP address from the response. - -.. cfgcmd:: set service dns dynamic interface <interface> use-web skip <pattern> - - ddclient_ will skip any address located before the string set in `<pattern>`. - -.. _ddclient: https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient |
