The AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express and Time Capsule devices use the DNS Update protocol
combined with TSIG security for IP updates. To access your AirPort devices from everywhere regardless
of IP changes, you can follow a few simple steps below to set up dynamic DNS updates.
Hostname The third-level Dynu hostname you intend to update. It could be example.dynu.com, example.dynu.net, example.mywire.org, etc.
User The third-level Dynu hostname you intend to update. It could be example.dynu.com, example.dynu.net, example.mywire.org, etc.
Password The Shared Secret (TSIG Signature) in the MD5 algorithm. It can be obtained from from the API Credentials section of the control panel.
Hostname bonjour.yourdomain.com
User Your own top-level domain name you intend to update such as yourdomain.com.
Password The Shared Secret (TSIG Signature) in MD5 algorithm. It can be obtained from the API Credentials section of the control panel.
Hostname Any Dynu third-level hostname in the user account or bonjour.yourdomain.com. yourdomain.com needs to be registered in the user account. Both setups in the above screenshots work.
User Your Dynu username. It can be obtained from the My Account section of the control panel. Note that using the username in this field will update all the third-level hostnames and top-level domains that have an empty Location name.
Password The Shared Secret (TSIG Signature) in the MD5 algorithm. It can be obtained from the API Credentials section of the control panel.
