Procedure

  • Rectify the fault according to the reason:

    • If the IP address whose lease needs to be renewed is different from the address assigned by the address pool to the client, perform the following operations to release the original client address and resend an address application request:

      When a device functions as the DHCP client, run the undo ip address dhcp-alloc command in the interface view, and then run the ip address dhcp-alloc command in the interface view.

      When a device functions as the Bootp client, run the undo ip address bootp-alloc and ip address bootp-alloc commands in the interface view, and then run the ip address bootp-alloc and undo ip address bootp-alloc commands in the interface view.

      When a PC functions as the client, commands for releasing an IP address vary with the operating systems. You can use either of the following methods to release an IP address:

      • Run the ipconfig/ release command on the Windows 7 operating system of the PC to release the IP address of the PC.
      • Run the winipcfg/ release command in the MS-DOS of Windows 98 to release the IP address of the PC.
    • If the client has no lease, release the original client address and resend an address application request.
    • If the address pool is locked, run the undo lock command in the address pool view to unlock the address pool after confirming the reason why the administrator locks the pool.
