1. Do I always get the same IP address (using the same MAC)? If so, I will just add it to my DNS server. 2. If not, does that radio support DDNS updates to a configurable BIND DNS server (if, so I couldn't find it). 3. Do you create a hostname on an externally visible domain?
1. Not presently. Eventually there will be some fancier stuff that will route your "user subnet" to you, and you'll get "link local" IPs over DHCP just to get things started. For now, you just get a global IP, and will *probably* get the same IP, but it's not guaranteed. 2. I'm not sure offhand. 3. Presently no, but we are working on the hamwan.net authoritative anycast nameservers which will do this. Nigel K7NVH On Mar 14, 2014, at 6:29 PM, Dean Gibson AE7Q <hamwan@ae7q.net> wrote:

NB: most DDNS uses encryption, so watch out for that. http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Tools/Dynamic_DNS On Fri, Mar 14, 2014 at 8:30 PM, Nigel Vander Houwen <nigel@k7nvh.com>wrote:

I got it to work, using the "/tool dns-update" command. Unfortunately, I have to key in the radio's IP address; I haven't found a way to have the radio *automatically* update my DNS server. However, on the MikroTik web site, there appear to be scripts I can adapt ... If you get your DHCP server to send assigned IP addresses to the DNS server for hamwan.net, then I can just CNAME to that. There's no rush; who knows if/when I will ever need/use it.

Wanna test static allocation, Dean? I need a test monkey that can help out. I'd probably need modem access though. --Bart On 3/14/2014 7:16 PM, Dean Gibson AE7Q wrote:

Sure, depending upon when. By "static allocation", do you mean always assigning the same fixed IP address to a given radio? On 2014-03-14 19:17, Bart Kus wrote:
