RFC 2136: Dynamic Updates in the Domain Name System (DNS UPDATE)

Still current, but amended. Parts of this document are changed or extended by RFC 3007, RFC 4033, RFC 4034, RFC 4035. Read both.

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

Using this specification of the UPDATE opcode, it is possible to add or delete RRs or RRsets from a specified zone. Prerequisites are specified separately from update operations, and can specify a dependency upon either the previous existence or nonexistence of an RRset, or the existence of a single RR.
