belongs, and thereafter changes to that mapping can only be done by
or at the behest of that client.
-Currently, D2 conflict detection is always performed.
+Conflict resolution can be indirectly enabled or disabled via
+the configuration parameter ``ddns-use-conflict-resolution``, supported
+by both ``kea-dhcp4`` and ``kea-dhcp6``. The servers use this parameter to
+set a flag within each NameChangeRequest they send that tells D2
+whether conflict resolution should be employed for that request.
+By default, conflict resolution is enabled. For more details, please refer
+to discussions of ``ddns-use-conflict-resolution`` in :ref:`dhcp4-ddns-config` and :ref:`dhcp6-ddns-config`.
+
+When conflict resolution is disabled, D2 still adds DHCID RRs but does
+not use them to enforce client ownership of DNS entries. Disabling it should
+only be used after careful consideration.
