Dnsmasq is a lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP
|
|
server. It is designed to provide DNS and, optionally, DHCP and/or TFTP,
|
|
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 disk-less 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.
