<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060">Well, the apex record of a zone can’t be an alias, and you can’t legally point an MX record to an alias as its target. So I don’t know if you’ll get much success,
either way…<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060">Can you move off the dynamic stuff to a subzone, e.g. dhcp.example.com? Then the main zone could be static, and that would give you more flexibility.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060">Generally speaking, you’ll want to split off your dynamic data anyway, since there’s so much “churn” associated with such zones. If dynamic and static entries
co-exist in the same part of the namespace hierarchy, there’s also an increased possibility of collision.
