Asuswrt DHCP > Windows Server DNS

[Rawb0]

Hi All,

I have recently moved my primary DNS server from my Asus router (RT-AC68U) to a Windows Server (2012R2) on the same network. All working fine and I can create custom A records on the Windows Server however my DHCP clients are not registering on the Windows DNS server. I still have DNS running (and configured as secondary) on the Router and if I use nslookup to query client IP / Name against the Router, they are resolved fine.

Is there anything I need to do to the DHCP config on the router to instruct it to register DHCP clients to the Windows DNS server ?

DHCP is currently performed by the Asus router.

Thanks for any assistance,
Rob.

Edit:

Is it just a case of updating /etc/resolv.conf which currently contains:

admin@RT-AC68U:/tmp/etc# cat resolv.conf
nameserver 127.0.0.1

Just a thought, is the client configured to register its name with DNS?
