Dynamic IP changing, Tracking

[JoshTBG]

Hey,

 

I would like to keep a track of when my IP changes. I have a raspberry pi hosting a web server and noip updating my domain.

I would like to keep a track of when my IP changes and no-IP changes to that.

 

Many Thanks,

 

Josh

Not 100% sure what you mean, maybe if you worded it better it would make more sense

NoIP has an application you can download onto the device that will update the domain name to redirect to the IP

so if the IP of your PC or Pi changes, the NoIP app will update the domain name to go to the new IP

Go and download the NO-IP DUC and it auto updates the IP to the new IP. It changes every time you restart your router if you are using DSL or every time your provider decides to change it if you are using broadband.

I would like to get an email every time my IP changes...

the IP should only change every time your router restarts...

 

why do you need an email anyway? with a domain name you dont need to know the IP

Some modems disconnect after a few minutes of inactivity. You may have a look if you can turn it off in your modem's settings.

yeah well with noip the application automatically updates the domain name redirect...

 

so if your domain is xyz.noip.whatever and your IP changes it doesnt matter

the application updates the DNS

so xyz.noip.whatever still goes to the same PC even though the IP changed

 

thats the entire point of noip...

Just look for a free dynamic dns updater. You may have to get your own domain name however (some services provide one to you).

So you say you have a Dynamic DNS service setup, why do you need to know when the IP changes, surely the point of DynDNS is not needing to care about those things.
