You'll need some standard for this obviously - But for me i build office networks with DHCP + DDNS from the DHCP Server. So the client transmits its name to the DHCP Server and voila - your name ends in the DNS as forward and backward DNS. Transferred to the IPv6 - We as an ISP would delegate the prefix to the CPE/residential gateway which would act as a authoritative Nameserver for the address space and clients could register their names in the residential gateway. Everything in the hand of the customer - no need to deal with selfcare portals etc ... Flo -- Florian Lohoff f...@zz.de
