and data between the TVG and clients. When you enable the proxy service on a TVG, the TVG initiates a
connection with the proxy server and registers with it each time it connects to a network. Clients can then connect to
the TVG indirectly by connecting to the proxy server. For additional information about proxy services in general
and about proxy servers that are available for use please contact your vendor.
DDNS is designed to facilitate internet connections to systems that use dynamic public IP addresses (see Appendix
B: LAN Settings, page 200). When you enable a DDNS on a TVG, the TVG is assigned a name. The TVG registers
with the DDNS service each time it connects to the internet, and relays its current public IP address to the service.
Client applications connect to the TVG by using its name rather than its public IP address. The DDNS service
ensures that the correct public IP address is linked to the name at all times, even when the IP changes.
Three DDNS services are supported by the system: SV-DDNS (SerVision's DDNS service), No-IP, and DynDNS.
For information about the SV-DDNS service, consult your vendor. For information about the No-IP and DynDNS
DDNS services, consult their websites (www.no-ip.com and www.dyndns.com).
