I have narrowed it down to my new dell PowerConnect 5324 switch. However, I'm not sure what settings to change to prevent this from happening. The switch is not acting like a DHCP server.

My switch had a vlan setup on it. I disable the dhcp interface to this and all is well. Thanks to everyone for your help!

I have a Windows 2003 DHCP server on my network. It is coming up with “bad addresses” that are using up my entire scope. The unique IDs tied to the bad addresses, which are usually a MAC address, is in the range of 3301a5c0 ~ 8501a5c0.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening? This is my only DHCP server. <br />

DHCP Bad Addresses

Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).

Apple Networking

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries, organized in abstraction layers, traditionally called "Link," "Internet," "Transport" and "Application”. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.
