The first is "dynamic DNS updating" which refers to systems that are used to update traditional DNS records without manual editing. [1] These mechanisms use TSIG to provide security. The second kind of dynamic DNS permits lightweight and immediate updates often using an update client, which do not use the RFC 2136 standard for updating DNS records.
Port forwarding via NAT router. In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.
The Multicast Address Dynamic Client Allocation Protocol (MADCAP) is designed to allow for automatic dynamic assignment of multicast addresses. [4] MADCAP allows for efficient allocation of multicast addresses. This is important for IPv4 which has a small number of multicast addresses available. This is less of a concern with IPv6 multicast.
Erlang supports Dynamic Software Updating, though this is commonly referred to as "hot code loading". Erlang requires no safety guarantees on updates, but Erlang culture suggests that developers write in a defensive style that will gracefully handle type errors generated by updating.

The label edge routers at the edges of an MPLS cloud map between the end-to-end identifier, such as an IP address, and a link-local label. At each MPLS hop, there is a forwarding table that tells the label-switched router which outgoing interface is to receive the MPLS packet, and what label to use when sending the packet out that interface.
In programming APIs (not in communication between hosts), requests a system-allocated (dynamic) port [6] 1: Yes: Assigned: TCP Port Service Multiplexer (TCPMUX). Historic. Both TCP and UDP have been assigned to TCPMUX by IANA, [2] but by design only TCP is specified. [7] 2: Assigned: compressnet (Management Utility) [3] 3: Assigned: compressnet ...
Port Control Protocol (PCP) is a computer networking protocol that allows hosts on IPv4 or IPv6 networks to control how the incoming IPv4 or IPv6 packets are translated and forwarded by an upstream router that performs network address translation (NAT) or packet filtering.
Port triggering is a configuration option on a NAT-enabled router that controls communication between internal and external host machines in an IP network. It is similar to port forwarding in that it enables incoming traffic to be forwarded to a specific internal host machine, although the forwarded port is not open permanently and the target internal host machine is chosen dynamically.
