DNS Updating

[Guest]

If a client is using DHCP to obtain a IP and it leases a new IP to it, does
DNS update this ? For instance a client is

192.168.1.1 and the client requests a new lease and the DHCP server assigns
it 192.168.1.4 does this update the DNS record ?

Thanks - I was curious.

Hi,

it depends on the configuration of the DHCP server. Right-click on the Dhcp
Scope you have, select Properties -> DNS tab and check , what you have
there.

In addition to Dominik's response, it also depends on what DHCP service
being used. Is it the router's or is it a Windows DHCP?
