We have a few IP exclusion groups that a third party setup with our network - these are small groups of IP's that are not in use. I'd like to have these excluded IP's available again for use by PC's, printers, etc. - I see I can right click on these exclusion lists and select delete - it that all I need to do to those IP's that I know are not in use to make them available again?

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks and an extension of the Bootstrap Protocol. DHCP allows for computers to be configured automatically to communicate with each other over an IP network without the need for manual setup by a network administrator. The implementation of DHCP relies on a DHCP server to hand out network configuration information to DHCP-capable clients that request an IP address (and other information required or useful in communicating with other devices on an IP network). In addition to an IP address, common configuration information served over DHCP includes a default gateway, subnet mask and DNS sever(s).
