I am new to DNS and DHCP and would like to know

1) I should set up DNS Server first or the DHCP Server
first in our network ?
2) When we add an entry in the DNS Server, is there any
easy way to reserve / exclude that static IP address in
the DHCP Server ?

Thanks

If you are running or going to run an Active Directory domain, DNS is
required.

You can reserve an IP address for a particular MAC address.

Or you can manually assign the address on the NIC and exclude it from
distribution in the DHCP scope.

Dear Kevin,

In other words, there is no setting so that when we add an
entry in DNS Server, the IP / Server Name / MAC Address
will be automatically reserved in the DHCP Server ?

Thanks

No, there is not.

The only relationships are that the DHCP
server may assign the clients the DNS server
to use AND optionally the DHCP server may
register those clients in DNS.

DHCP scopes are manage by the admin --
even two DHCP servers don't share scope
information or addresses in use (except when
clustered to run from the same disk storage
space.)
