Configuring the DNS Server for Dynamic Update

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Depending on how you deploy your server and zones, your zones might already be configured for dynamic update or secure dynamic update. If the zones are not configured as you intend, make any necessary changes. You can configure your zones to perform dynamic updates, secure dynamic updates, or no updates. However, configuring your zones to perform unsecured dynamic updates is a security risk and is not recommended.

For information about how to configure dynamic updates, see "Dynamic update" in Help and Support Center for Windows ServerĀ 2003. For information about how to allow only secure dynamic updates, see "Allow only secure dynamic updates" in Help and Support Center for Windows ServerĀ 2003.
