Can Anybody Explain This? by aadewale(m): 10:49pm On Apr 26, 2007 |
Could somebody please explain this? I use DHCP on my LAN with the exception of a computer which I preferred to put static IP of the same range as the DHCP range. This is neccesary because the one with the staic is the Server while others are cclients that are needed to be pointed to the server, However, I have observed that sometimes the server already configured with static IP lose the IP address and changes to DHCP. INfact, checking the LAN card reveals that there was no IP on the card. It has changed mysteriously to AUTO IP mode. I find it baffling. Can somebody expalin this to me.PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE |

Is it the DHCP server that changes to AUTO CONFIG or is it another server you are talking about? |

@sholasys Dont you think using a router for such a trivial issue (DHCP) would be too much? |

Thanks for your responses. I have a linksys router that gives out DHCP ip addresses to client. THe server I talked about is a cafe timer server that all other clients machine connects to for timing and authorisation. The timer server itself has just one card on it that is also connected to the same switch that other clients machine connects to. I hope have been able to give the details you requested for. Thanks all |
