Research direction
Locate the Python dyndns updater and trace how it obtains the current IP and decides whether to send an update. Verify the existing tests, if any, and cover the cases where the IP is missing, invalid, or unchanged. Done means updates occur only for a valid IP that differs from the previously reported value.
