Abstract:

For years, Oregon State University (OSU) had managed Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) tables with a set of command-line scripts developed by the campus network engineering group. The scripts worked well but required a certain level of understanding to use them. In 2000, a decision was made to change the institutional domain name from orst.edu to oregonstate.edu. With this significant operational change, it was determined that the DNS/DHCP table management tool in place at the time was not sufficiently scalable to support necessary retrofit requirements, and the decision was made to replace it with an in-house developed Web-based application.
