Cisco DHCP server and Microsoft DNS server

Sep 11, 2007 3 Replies

Hi guys,



I need to integrate a Cisco DHCP server on a 4506 Catalyst with Windows 2003 DNS server, Is it possible for the DNS entry to be updated? And whether it is recommended or not?



Regards, Andy



DHCP and DNS are completely independent of each other. If you give out the DNS server address of the Microsoft DNS server as a DHCP option, then that's the address the PC will send its DNS dynamic update.

Do i need any other command DNS related than the ones below?

conf t ip domain-lookup ip name-server 10.12.20.53 ip name-server 10.12.30.51 ip domain-name delta.com

Regards, Andy

Hi,

you need to configure the DHCP to send the info to clients:

ip dhcp pool my-pool-name import all network 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 default-router 10.10.10.1 dns-server 194.219.227.2 193.92.110.1

hope this helps
