-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.
