How to specify the host name for a static WAN interface
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
When the WAN1 connection type is configured to use dynamic IP, the web page has an optional field to specify the host name. The is good.
However, when the WAN1 connection type is configured to static IP, the web page has no way to specify the host name. Is this behavior expected?
Be able to specify the host name associated with device might be useful for system administration and also for consistency with a signed certificate.
Thanks
Hi @zookeeper
Thanks for posting in our business forum.
Are you looking for the LAN settings instead of the WAN?
Why would the hostname bind to the WAN IP? If you need that, register a domain first, use DDNS and bind it.
You can bind the router LAN IP to a hostname, not the WAN. They are different. On the WAN, that's FQDN.
