I meant the operating system. There must be a table of nameservers and the
IP of each device. How can I add my nameservers (and the assigned IP)
dynamically to that OS table? Is it a call to the IP and/or DHCP protocol
module? It is a system-dependent question and has nothing to do with the PPP
protocol itself.
