Create your DNS Exit account so you can manage your hostnames and generate update commands.
Step 2
Add your hostname
After you sign in, add the hostname you want to keep updated, then open the Dynamic IP Update page to generate your command.

After setup, use your update URL in a router, DDNS client, or scheduled task.
If you prefer a command line or custom integration, use the update URL below. DNS Exit will detect your public IP automatically unless you pass the optional ip parameter.
Note: Simply add the parameter -d ip=xx.xx.xx.xx to override the updated IP(IPv4 or IPv6). Please make sure your update interval is more than 4 minutes.
For multiple hosts, separate the hostnames with commas. The API Key can be created at your account Dashboard -> Settings
Note: You need to replace the API-KEY and hostname with your own api key and hostname
The return is JSON file with a successfull update like:
{"code" : 0, "message" : "Success - some details about the update"}
code:0 indicates successfull updates while code:1 indicates IP address not changed. Other returning codes indicates errors.
curl (short for "Client URL") is a command line tool that can communicates with a web server with a relevant URL. Or in other words, it is just like a text based web browser. The curl command is built in most Operating Systems including Linux, Unix, MacOS, and Windows (sinc Windows 10 ). If your windows does not have curl command, you can refer to
install curl on windows
