With the `namecheapdns` component you can automatically update your dynamic DNS entry at [namecheapdns](https://www.namecheap.com/store/domains/freedns/).
|
|
|
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
|
Namecheap only supports IPv4 addresses to update.

To use the component in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|

```
|
