DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which dynamically allocates an IP address and/or host configuration parameters to a host. The DHCP client's address can be changed dynamically any time. For the possible communication with other system, the DHCP client has to inform its address to the DNS system with dynamic update facility. But the DNS dynamic update has a problem related to the security. So we proposed the efficient mechanism for the secure integration of DHCP and DNS by using DNS security extensions. The system also uses the DNS server as the certificate repository for the storing & retrieval of each other's certificate.
