Unit 2 Assignment 1

Unit 2 Assignment 1
Dear Junior Admin,
A common problem that happens is assuming as soon as DHCP options are changed that all PCs will automatically implement them.
With DHCP when the computer comes online it does a broadcast search for a DHCP server. The server responds with a message offering an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway as well as some DNS options and WINS if that is configured.
Once the pc accepts it the DHCP server will send an acknowledgement message. At that point the PC will send back a message that it will take it and the DHCP server will send a message indicating that an IP address has been reserved for the lease period.
At this point the PC will not contact the DHCP server again until halfway through the lease time, which is usually a default period of 8 days.
If you want to force all of the PCs to grab a new IP address then you will have to go to each computer, open a DOS prompt, and do an “ipconfig/release” and “ipconfig/renew”.
Now if that fixes the problem, then great. If not then you may need to check your scope configuration and make sure the network/subnet mask match what is configured on the router that you have connected to that particular LAN.
I hope this information helps you with your problem.

Sincerely,
IT Admin

    So, to force all the PCs to grab new IP addresses, you need to go to each computer, open a DOS prompt, and do an "ipconfig /release" and an "ipconfig /renew". If this does not work, you need to check your scope configuration, and make sure the network/subnet mask match what is configured on the router that is connected to this a particular LAN. Also you might need to see whether your DHCP server is on the same LAN, or whether your organizational IT is doing DHCP relays, etc.…

    Check the workstations using ipconfig /all and find out if the ip range is within the address range you assigned, if it is a different address then the workstation failed to contact the DHCP server and has gone into apipa mode. The Network Interface Card might be assigned an incorrect driver. Another possible cause of the problem is that the patch cable is not plugged into the Network Interface Card, or is not connected to a switch on the other end. However, it could be that the server has run out of IP addresses that it can assign to clients. You can easily tell if this is the problem by comparing the size of the DHCP address scope to the number of devices on your network that request IP addresses from the DHCP server. But since only some of the workstations have got addresses the problem might be the DHCP server. Start off by doing some ping tests to verify that the DHCP server is able to communicate across the network. If the DHCP server is able to communicate with other computers on the network, then I recommend verifying that the DHCP server has an IP address that is compatible with the scope that the server is configured to assign addresses from. The server itself has to be assigned a static address in the same subnet range, such as 192.168.0.199. If this still doesn’t solve the problem make sure that the DHCP server is still authorized by the Active Directory to lease IP addresses. You should also check to verify that the scope is active, and that the necessary services are running on the DHCP server.…

    Unit 2 Assignment 1 DHCP Troubleshooting

    Being as you made the adjustments on Friday, some of the PC’s will not perform the above task until Tuesday, by default. What you need to do to correct the problem is force each of the PC’s that did not pick up the new leases from the scope to grab new IP addresses. This can be done by going to each PC, and in DOS, perform an “ipconfig /release” followed by “ipconfig /renew”. This will force the PC to renew its lease and grab a new IP Address.…

    Having only two computers set up statically on a network will not be very time consuming having to change the setup if something on the network is replaced. Assigning client addresses automatically is by far the easiest option of the two. When setting up a DHCP server and leaving room for growth on the subnet you use, can also save time when installing new computers on the network. It would save the time of manually having to configure any new computers. Not to mention it takes way less time configuring a DHCP server than it would to configure each computer statically. Obviously you would want to pre-allocate IP addresses for fixed hosts such as routers, servers or even printers. These you would set up on the DHCP server as reserved addresses and set them statically on the devices.…
