Can A Dhcp Client Or Server Make A Dns Server Update The Client's Dnsentry To Match The Client's Dynamically Assigned Address? |
|
Answer» RFCs 2136 and 2137 indicate a way in which DNS entries can be updateddynamically. Using this REQUIRES a DNS server that supports this feature and aDHCP server that makes USE of it. The RFCs are very RECENT (as of 5/97) andimplementations are few. In the mean time, there are DNS and DHCP serversthat accomplish this through PROPRIETARY means.
