# Setting up Dynamic DNS (optional)
|
|
|
|
The playbook can configure Dynamic DNS with [ddclient](https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient) for you. It is a Perl client used to update dynamic DNS entries for accounts on Dynamic DNS Network Service Provider.
|
|
|
|
Most cloud providers / ISPs will charge you extra for a static IP address. If you're not hosting a highly reliable homeserver you can workaround this via dynamic DNS.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite
|
|
|
|
You'll need to get a username and password from your DNS provider. Please consult with the provider about how to retrieve them.
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
|
|
|
To enable dynamic DNS, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_dynamic_dns_enabled: true
|
|
|
|
matrix_dynamic_dns_domain_configurations:
|
|
- provider: example.net
|
|
protocol: dyndn2
|
|
username: YOUR_USERNAME_HERE
|
|
password: YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE
|
|
domain: "{{ matrix_domain }}"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
After configuring the playbook, run the [installation](installing.md) command: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
|
