  • In the DNS MMC, on the View menu, you enable Advanced.
  • You view the properties for the static A record.
  • You click to select the Delete this record when it becomes stale check box.
In this scenario, the Timestamp attribute is not populated as expected. Additionally, the A record is not updated to a dynamic record.
