The conflict auto-recycle interval command enables automatic reclaim of conflicting IP addresses in the global address pool and configures the interval for the automatic reclaim.
The undo conflict auto-recycle interval command disables automatic reclaim of conflicting IP addresses in the global address pool and deletes the configured interval for the automatic reclaim.
By default, automatic reclaim of conflicting IP addresses in the global address pool is disabled.

Usage Scenario
This command is used on a DHCP server. When a DHCP server allocates IP addresses to clients, IP address conflict may occur because IP addresses of some hosts have been manually configured. In this case, the DHCP server considers these IP addresses as conflicting IP addresses, and allocates available IP addresses from the conflicting IP addresses to clients only after available IP addresses in the address pool are used up. To reclaim conflicting IP addresses promptly, the administrator can run the conflict auto-recycle interval command to enable automatic reclaim and specify the reclaim interval.
Prerequisites
The global address pool has been created using the ip pool command.
