>> curl https://api.dnsexit.com/dns/ud/?apikey=API-KEY -d host=host1.domain.com,host2.domain2.com |
| On any machine behind the router, just schedule a job to run the above command every few minutes. Our system will automatically detect your public IP address and update your hosts to the new IP. Alternatively, you may add parameter -d ip=xx.xx.xx.xx to overwrite the IP. For multiple hosts, just seperate them by , (comma). The API Key can be generated at your account Dashboard -> Settings. |

{"code" : 0, "message" : "Success - some details about the update"}
