FVS336G VPN set up behind a nat router with a DHCP WAN

Hello all,

 

   I have a FVS336G sitting behind a router that pulls its WAN address via DHCP.   I had considered bridging through to the router but since it is DHCP I am thinking there is a better way of doig this.  I manage both routers but the reason behind the first router is it is a 4G verizon Cradlepoint so I have to keep it as my bDemarc.   I have looked into dynamic DNS as a possible solution but can not get a clear handle if it will do what i need or more importantly how to set it up.  Any shared ideas or solutions would be great!

    Hello DaytonRobinson, 

     

    What type of setup do you want to achieve? Do you want to run VPN and/or let the FVS336G manage your inbound and outbound connection? Dynamic DNS is a good solution if you want to have remote access on devices behind the FVS336G and it can do a lot more. You can also use DMZ but we need to know what you want to accomplish. 

     

    Looking forward to your response. 

     

    Thanks,
