<div> </div>
<div>This mail is regarding , the proposal for adding an additional property `StaticNameservers` and also for changing the definition of the existing `Nameservers` property.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>- Currently, we have a single DBUS property under Ethernet interface named `Nameservers` that captures only StaticNameservers configured on the system. It does not populate the information regarding the DNS information that is obtained by DHCP server.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It is also to be noted that the static & dynamic configuration can co-exist at the same time(means we might have the DNS set manually by user and also by the DHCP Server at the same time).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As per the discussion with Ratan & Wak(https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/openbmc/phosphor-networkd/+/24224/),we had come to a conclusion that we need have two properties in the Backend for nameservers (similar to what we have in redfish):</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. Nameservers - A read only property which captures the current nameservers on the system (which may be static or/and dynamic)<br>2. StaticNameservers - A writeable property which captures only the static nameservers.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please let me know, if anyone have concerns with this proposal.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,<br>Manoj</div></div></div></div><BR>
