OVH DynDNS not updating

[Matthias]

Hello,

does somebody successfully use a DDNS with OVH? No matter what I set, I don‘t get it working. The Domain entry is not update on change of. The WAN IP.

Hello.

I suppose it's better to contact to the support.

Hi, OVH is perfectly working, although it's a bit tricky to configure.

First of all, you are supposed to set your OVH username and subdomain as follows: https://help.ovhcloud.com/csm/en-ie-dns-dynhost?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0051641

In Keenetic, select "Other" DynDNS profile, and set a URL template like this:

https://dns.eu.ovhapis.com/nic/update?system=dyndns&hostname=${domain}&myip=${ip6}

(example for IPv6), and fill in the parameters as shown on the screenshot:

The checkbox "Automatically detect my IP address" must be checked. Also, remember to select your internet connection, as shown by the red arrow.

Here are some helpful CLI commands to debug your setup. Substitute PPPoE0 with your internet connection ID:

• "interface PPPoE0 debug" — to see in the device log how it interacts with the OVH server
• "interface PPPoE0 dyndns update" — send an update HTTP request manually
