Thanks very much for your inputs..
Can we disable this option ""Register this connection's addresses in DNS"
option on clients using group policy and if so what is that policy and where
should I configure this?
TIA

Hi Tom,
What I meant by the first part was that you can continue having the clients
register, but then you need scavenging to clear out old registrations that
the clients have not themselves removed (often happens with laptops that
leave the network). This is the simplest, but it is not foolproof.
As an alternative you can use DHCP dynamic registration. The links that
Kevin and Ace provided describe that very well.
Hope you get it sorted,
Anthony,
