The ``BOOTP`` class is used by the BOOTP hook library to classify and
respond to inbound BOOTP queries.
+The ``SKIP_DDNS`` class is used by the DDNS-tuning hook library to suppress
+DDNS updates on a per client basis.
+
Other examples are the ``ALL`` class, to which all incoming packets belong,
and the ``KNOWN`` class, assigned when host reservations exist for a
particular client. By convention, the names of built-in classes begin with all
capital letters.
-Currently recognized built-in class names are ``ALL``, ``KNOWN`` and ``UNKNOWN``, and the
-prefixes ``VENDOR_CLASS_``, ``HA_``, ``AFTER_``, and ``EXTERNAL_``. Although the ``AFTER_``
-prefix is a provision for an as-yet-unwritten hook, the ``EXTERNAL_``
-prefix can be freely used; built-in classes are implicitly defined so
-they never raise warnings if they do not appear in the configuration.
