EdgeRouter: Dynamic DNS with afraid.org

By | July 11, 2016

I wanted to use for my site-to-site VPN connection some aliases in the configuration files.

The simple solution was to configure some dynamic DNS aliases with afraid.org

After creating an account and defining a site name like site1.mooo.com do the following from CLI

configure
set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service afraid host-name site1.mooo.com
set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service afraid login myUser
set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service afraid password myPassword
set service dns dynamic interface eth0 service afraid server freedns.afraid.org
commit
save
exit
