Dnsmasq is lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP server. It is designed to provide DNS
and, optionally, DHCP, 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 diskless
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.
