Simple DNS Plus v. 4.00
Options dialog - DHCP

·DHCP interfaces / scopes  
List of current DHCP scopes  
The details of each scope are defined in the DHCP scope dialog when you click the Add/Edit buttons.  
Only one DHCP scope can be setup for each local IP address.  

·Automatically update DNS  
With this setting enabled, Simple DNS Plus will automatically generate an A-record and a PTR-record (and zones to keep them in if needed) when a DHCP client leases an IP-address so that other computers can find it using DNS.  
This requires unique client names, meaning that no two DHCP clients may have the same host name. If two computers on the network both have the same name and both are configured to use DHCP, the second computer booted will not get an IP address and not have access to the network.
