asked on

DHCP license renewal?

We are using DHCP, our current configuration is set for client leases to be "unlimited". Based on what I have read in the help file, the client's IP would only be released & reassigned if the computer were to move from one subnet to another. Is this a correct understanding?

Also, is there any sort of log file that shows how long a specific computer has been assigned a specific IP?

Thanks in advance,
Jhana

You might find that the address will not be released even it you change sub-net.  You may have to manually release the address with "ipconfig /release" and then "ipconfig /renew"
