Dnsmasq is lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP server. It is designed to provide DNS
|
|
and, optionally, DHCP, to a small network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not in
|
|
the global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and allows machines with DHCP-allocated
|
|
addresses to appear in the DNS with names configured either in each host or in a central configuration
|
|
file. Dnsmasq supports static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP for network booting of diskless
|
|
machines.
|
|
|
|
Dnsmasq is targeted at home networks using NAT and connected to the internet via a modem, cable-modem
|
|
or ADSL connection but would be a good choice for any small network where low resource use and ease of
|
|
configuration are important.
