Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a service that automatically updates your DNS records whenever your internet IP address changes . This is particularly useful for users running home servers, security cameras, or VPNs on an internet connection with a dynamic IP. Instead of manually updating your A record, DDNS ensures your domain always points to your current IP.
