Usage guidelines

The DHCP server assigns an IP address together with the lease duration to the DHCP client. Before the lease expires, the DHCP client must extend the lease duration.

• If the lease extension operation succeeds, the DHCP client can continue to use the IP address.

• If the lease extension operation does not succeed, both of the following events occur:

  • The DHCP client cannot use the IP address after the lease duration expires.

  • The DHCP server will label the IP address as an expired address.

Examples

# Set the lease duration to 1 day, 2 hours, 3 minutes, and 4 seconds in DHCP address pool 0.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] dhcp server ip-pool 0
[Sysname-dhcp-pool-0] expired day 1 hour 2 minute 3 second 4
