Automatically change the public ip? #616

I have a dynamic dns (from freedns.afraid.org which I already use for ssh) and I was wondering if it was possible to apply it or if there is already an option to change the public ip automatically since it changes from time to time and having to reinstall every time it happens, sometimes you don't realize it until you try to connect and it doesn't allow it.

It is possible to check for it every hour, but the problem is that perhaps you don't use automatic configuration, so we need to think about marking an access point (IP) as auto-update.

I should tell you it is not on our priority list, so I recommend you consider ordering a static IP if possible.

It is that a static ip costs 30 euros more per month. It is not worth it, by the way, if I have the auto configuration activated. You mean this right?

Yes, if you restart the server, the new IP must be automatically configured, but your client does not have the new IP unless you configure a repo or you configure the farm using a dynamic DNS

or both

I apologize for my previous suggestion. I neglected to consider that the server doesn't check its IP every hour; it only does so after a restart. Therefore, the method I described won't work. However, if your public IP forwards to your local IP, you don't need to do anything. Just use DDNS for your endpoint. That is, set the Access Point Type to Own Domain, which requires that you have a domain.
