I believe a DHCP reservation is simply a server configuration artifact, not something in the actual DHCP wire protocol. So, that would really depend on the implementation, of both server and client. First, it will depend on what the server gives for a lease time on reservation. I imagine a server could just use the same lease time it does for dynamic IP addresses in the scope, or it could issue an infinite lease time. Then it depends on the client. A client with an infinite lease time may decide it should check in periodically anyway, or restart its DHCP cycle for other reasons. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
