Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The reset ip pool command resets the IP addresses that cannot be released in an IP address pool. If an IP address conflict occurs because two clients use the same IP address, run the reset ip pool command to reset the specified IP address pool.

Precautions

If a user's IP address is within the IP address range specified when this command is run, the user cannot continue to use the IP address after this command is run, and needs to send an IP address application request again.

The address pool status cannot be restored after this command is run. Therefore, exercise caution when deciding to run this command.

User information cannot be restored after you clear it. Exercise caution when running the reset ip pool command. DHCP clients must release their old IP addresses before obtaining new IP addresses.

Follow-up Procedure

After the address pool is set to idle, the client can obtain an IP address from the global address pool.

Example

# Reset the conflicting IP addresses in the IP address pool mypool.

<HUAWEI> reset ip pool name mypool conflict
