Hi,

I have assigned an IP address in my IIS for an application and its working fine.

But there is a problem, the IP address get changed frequently. Because of this my application is not able to access when the ip is changed.

So, please let me know any idea or procedure to access my application even when IP is changed ?

Hi,

You can use computer name instead of IP address to call your application: Example:

http://humanit/basic     instead of http://192.168.151.10/basic where humanit is a computer name

Unfortunately I have to use IP address when aplication activate on mobile device using android. I have not test on other mobile device yet.

Hope this can help

as far as I am concerned, if a static IP is assigned to your site, it cannot change automatically.

would you please elaborate whether you manage your own DNS server?

W dont have our own DNS.

We have just add the application in our server, to access the app through LAN. Thats all.

Normally, a static IP can not be changed automatically. You probably just used your computer LAN IP for the app? In that case you just need to assign your computer a static IP.
