Where do the forward records for these random devices come from?

From a domain name typed into a configuration panel on the home gateway, updated in the same manner (find the zone cut, 
find the MNAME, send a DNS UPDATE)?

Hmmn. Seems like a security disaster waiting to happen, but I see how the pices could work. Tnx.
