Whatever address you have to put into the DNS as a service points or lots 
of configuration files you should use static assignments. For example I 
would recommend using static assignment for different services on servers. 
You can achieve similar effect to www, ftp CNAMEs. For hosts that does not 
serve anything use autoconfig. For interfaces address of firewall I would 
use static....
