Port forwarding to DNS name?

Hi,

Using RRAS NAT port forwarding, is there any way to configure it to
forward the port to a 'dynamic' IP in the local network that is assigned by
RRAS? (that is, a dns name like ROSETTA.domain.com).
I tried adding the portforwarding rule using netsh but it seems it also
checks that the ip is a numeric IP.
I guess if not I'll need to setup a dhcp server to always assign the
same IP address based on the mac address?

Regards,
Juan

No.

Yup. Or a static IP.
