DDNS updates on (failover) WAN

I have two wan(s) configures for failover, my WAN1 is the primary connection my WAN2 is the secondary connection. When WAN1 fails ( interconnection is lost ) WAN2 gets active. As soon as WAN1 is online again it takes over WAN2.

 

This works great, but I want to update also the DYNDNS. So if WAN1 drops and WAN2 took over the IP address changes and I want to update the DYNDNS, if WAN1 comes backup online again the IP changes again and I want to update the same DYNDNS name with the current IP in use.

 

I can’t figure it out how this one works.

 

Anybody any idea ? Gido.
