Unbound is a resolver, and while it has facilities for serving 
authoritative data, your scenario seems to rather call for a proper 
authoritative DNS server with support for dynamic DNS updates. The 
"dyndns" term is somewhat ambiguous, as it can refer both to these 
online DNS redirection services; but it also refers to standards-based 
dynamic DNS updates, defined in RFC 2136.

You might want to take a look at RFC 2136 and the implementations 
offered by some authoritative implementations, accepting updates from 
your ISC DHCP server.
