Link a domain name to Jeedom

This guide explains how to access your Jeedom home automation box (which is behind a dynamic IP address, provided by your ISP) with a domain name at Infomaniak via the free DynDNS option.

 

Prerequisites

  • Have a Jeedom installation (on a Raspberry Pi 5, for example) connected to the Internet with a dynamic IP address.
  • A dynamic DNS must have been created on the domain in question.

 

Link Jeedom to a domain name

To do this:

  1. Install the official and free DynDNS plugin on your Jeedom application from the Market.
  2. Activate the plugin as usual.
  3. Configure a new device by selecting Infomaniak from the list of services:
  4. Hostname: the URL configured in the Manager when adding the Dynamic DNS
  5. Username: the identifier defined in the Manager when adding the Dynamic DNS
  6. Password: the password defined in the Manager when adding the Dynamic DNS

 

Jeedom will check the external IP every 15 minutes. If it has changed, the DNS will be updated. Thus, your domain name will always point to your Jeedom, even if your Internet Service Provider changes your public IP address.

Also refer to the official plugin documentation.
