How to solve the following compliance error message when using the Best Practices Analyzer with DNS running on Windows Server Core?
Problem:
The interface Ethernet 2 is not configured to register its addresses in DNS.
Impact:
IP addresses on the interface will not be automatically registered in DNS.
Resolution:
Configure the interface Ethernet 2 to register the connection's addresses in DNS.

BPA model version: 2.0
Since I'm running AD:DS with DNS on Windows Server Core, I don't have the interface to add the option to satisfy this requirement from BPA.
Server is already configured with static IPv4 addresses and DNS:

Thanks.
PS: I know that I can just ignore it, but ignoring it defeats the purpose of the question.
EDIT: There's only one network interface on the server:
