Completes integration of the MetaInfo Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol with its managed internal domain name systems.
NeuStar, Inc.,
a services provider to the communications and Internet industry,
announced today that it has completed the integration of the MetaInfo
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol with its Managed Internal Domain
Name Systems service.
This follows NeuStar's acquisition of the assets of MetaInfo in
January of this year. NeuStar's DHCP is also at the core of the
MetaInfo and Secure Addressing Framework Extensions for DHCP, a
architecture for network access control. Whereas most DNS/DHCP
solutions use the Internet Software Consortium open source DHCP and
ISC's Berkeley Internet Name Domain for DNS, both NeuStar's DHCP, and
its Managed Internal DNS Service are proprietary, says the company.
"NeuStar continually strives to bring our enterprise customers the
most secure and reliable infrastructure to support their business
continuity and revenue assurance requirements both inside and outside
the firewall," said Ben Petro, Senior Vice President of NeuStar Ultra
Services. "Our new DHCP complements NeuStar's leadership in managed DNS
services and will significantly enhance our customers' networking
environments. We are particularly excited by the increased flexibility
our proprietary DHCP provides, driving new innovations such as SAFE
DHCP."
