[Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq & DDNS

Hi Folks,

I've been following this little how to:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-server/administration/dnsmasq/
Which says:
'Fedora Server Edition recommends the lightweight dnsmasq program to 
provide DHCP, DDNS and DNS caching service for a server and a small to 
medium-sized local network.'

Which has led me to believe I can configure dnsmasq as a DDNS client... 
However, I've found very little information about how to do that - nil. 
And, the dnsmasq manual mentions DDNS precisely once.  All of which, 
after well wasted morning, leads me to suspect that dnsmasq is not meant 
to be configured as a DDNS client...

My question: are my suspicions correct?

If I'm wrong and dnsmasq can be configured as a DDNS client and my 
google foo has been poo - can anyone give me a pointer to where I might 
find more information.

Thanks folks and have a good Easter Monday.

M
