Network Monitoring
DynDNS® Network Monitoring detects network, system, and application level failures and notifies host or service level contacts. Checks are distributed across our network from multiple sites to avoid false positives and provide an accurate view of the availability of your services.
Capabilities and Features

- At-a-glance dashboard to see multiple checks
- Complete logging out system status changes
- Notifications can be sent to e-mail or pager aliases
- Designate a notification contact for a host and each service in a host

- Up to ten (10) types of services on a single host
