DDNS update stuck at 3 days update interval

My IPv6 ddns domain update interval is stuck at 3 days, I’ve tried reloading it, setting a manual update interval, but nothing works.

Shouldn’t it be 10 minutes (600 seconds) by default?

config ddns 'global'
        option ddns_dateformat '%F %R'
        option ddns_loglines '250'
        option ddns_rundir '/var/run/ddns'
        option ddns_logdir '/var/log/ddns'

config service 'ipv6'
        option service_name 'dynv6.com'
        option use_ipv6 '1'
        option enabled '1'
        option lookup_host 'ddns-domain’
        option domain 'ddns-domain'
        option username 'none'
        option password 'password'
        option ip_source 'network'
        option ip_network 'wan6'
        option interface 'wan6'
        option use_syslog '2'
        option use_https '1'
        option check_unit 'minutes'
        option check_interval '10'

Next update is for a forced update which happens even if your IP address has not changed. This is needed since some services clear out 'stale' DDNS records after a period of time - usually days, weeks or even months.

The check interval is for how often it checks to see if your IP address changed. If it changed then an update will be done with the DDNS service.

Thanks for clarifying how it works. I got confused looking at the information shown by the luci package.
