Hello Mathieu,
We're configured so that the DHCP server always registers and updates client
information in DNS. After reading the article link you sent (thanks by the
way) I chose to add our DHCP top the DNSUpdateProxy group. After restarting
the DHCP server service, I'm getting sucessfull registrations.
From what I can see, option 81 is already enabled from my setting. I
couldn't find an option 81 on my DHCP server.
