You could make a script to do things:
unbound-control local_data_remove <name>
unbound-control local_data <name> A <ip4 address>
echo 'local-data: "<name> A <ip4address"' > somedir/<name>.loc

Unbound-control instructs the running daemon what to do; the .loc
files are meant for server restarts, and you include them in unbound.con
f:
server:
include: "somedir/*.loc"

An in dhcpd.conf this looks like this (from
http://jpmens.net/2011/07/06/execute-a-script-when-isc-dhcp-hands-out-a-
new-lease/):
on commit {
        set clip = binary-to-ascii(10, 8, ".", leased-address);
        set clhw = binary-to-ascii(16, 8, ":", substring(hardware, 1, 6)
);
        execute("/usr/local/sbin/dhcpevent", "commit", clip, clhw,
host-decl-name);
}
Which passes "commit" "192.0.2.1" "11:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee" "name"

You might check the ip address for IPv6 and then commit 'AAAA' records
instead.  You can also load PTR records into unbound if you wish.

Best regards, Wouter
