    The default behavior of Windows clients is that they never release the IP address. You can configure the Windows client to "Release on shutdown" via an option configuration on the DHCP server. In which case, the client will release the IP address lease on a shutdown. Other clients (printers, phones) may have different behavior. However, most DHCP client implementations do not release the IP address lease.

    Hey Eric, http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa363284(VS.85).aspx This is the API you need to use from any of your RPC client. There is also a netsh command for displaying all v4 clients for a scope: netsh dhcp server scope show clients Raunak Pandya DHCP Server Team

    We are running DHCP on Window 2008 R2 and recently it lost router and duration settings for all scopes.  It continues to lose the durations settings.    Any suggestions on stopping and preventing the loss of settings DHCP?

    Do DHCP clients that have a reserved IP address configured for them on the DHCP server release their IP address if for example thier DHCP server is unavailable and their lease has expired? Thanks, John
