Update security level

ComputerNative Intune settingDNS_UpdateSecurityLevel

Supported on At least Windows Server 2003 operating systems or Windows XP Professional

What it does

Specifies the security level for dynamic DNS updates. To use this policy setting, click Enabled and then select one of the following values: Unsecure followed by secure - the DNS client sends secure dynamic updates only when nonsecure dynamic updates are refused. Only unsecure - the DNS client sends only nonsecure dynamic updates. Only secure - The DNS client sends only secure dynamic updates. If you enable this policy setting, DNS clients that attempt to send dynamic DNS updates will use the security level that you specify in this policy setting. If you disable this policy setting, or if you do not configure this policy setting, DNS clients will use local settings. By default, DNS clients attempt to use unsecured dynamic update first. If an unsecured update is refused, clients try to use secure update.

These deployment candidates come from the ADMX template; they are separate from the native CSP mapping above.

  • The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
