Internet Protocol Address (abbreviated as ip address) is a personalized address of a computer that connects to the Internet or a local network. Usually the address is permanent and assigned by the network administrator. How do I make it float (dynamic)?
It is necessary
- - browser;
- - Internet connection;
- - administrator rights on the local machine.
Instructions
Step 1
Contact your ISP for a dynamic IP address. After its assignment, when connecting a computer to the network, you can use the address for one session, until the connection is completed.
Step 2
Request an ip address automatically through the "Control Panel" in the "Network Connections" section. Select "Internet Protocol" from the list and click the "Properties" button. Check the box next to "Get ip address automatically".
Step 3
Use the common network configuration protocol DHCP and make a request to obtain available servers. Specify "0.0.0.0" as the source ip address. Fill in the message fields with some parameters: a unique computer address, a hardware address and the last known ip address. The server will send you a response, which will indicate the new address and other parameters (for example, the address of the DNS server). You can choose the proposed options at your discretion.
Step 4
Register on the DNS server at the selected address. This can be done through the configured interface using the received options.
Step 5
Go to the website www.no-ip.org. Click on the picture that appears, enter your email address. This will start registration to create your own ip address. Confirmation of the creation of addresses will be sent to your mail.
Step 6
Download the Updater program from the website to automatically update the DNS server. After installing the program in the "Start" menu, you will see the "Dynamic DNS" shortcut. Click on it with the right mouse button, then "Configure". After updates, the program sets a new ip address.
Step 7
Please note that with a dynamic IP address, you will not be able to use your computer as a web server. But you are given the opportunity to freely receive information from the network, which is updated in real time and automatically.
