⁠OVH DynDns

DynDNS: DynDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a service that allows you to associate a dynamic IP address with a domain name. It is commonly used when you have a dynamic IP address assigned by your internet service provider (ISP), and you want to access your network or services using a domain name instead of the changing IP address. DynDNS provides a way to automatically update the IP address associated with your domain name whenever it changes. This ensures that your domain name always points to the correct IP address, even if it changes periodically. There are several providers that offer DynDNS services, including DynDNS.org (which used to be a popular choice before being acquired by Oracle) and No-IP.com.

This image contains a simple tool to automate updating of IP address for OVH domain provider.
