'deny client-updates;'. The client's request is not truly ignored,
rather it is encouraged. Should this value be configured, the server
updates DNS as though client-updates were set to 'deny'. That is, it
enters into DNS whatever it is configured to do already, provided it is
configured to. Then it sends a response to the client that lets the
client believe it is performing client updates (which it will), probably
