Yes.  Many clients will automatically ask for longer lease times than your 
default.

I am not trying to spam mail, but should we set the maximum lease time as well? 
It is currently at default.

We recently lowered our DHCP lease time to the default of 2 hours. 

 

After a couple hours, I was checking the DHCP leases and see some that have a 
difference of 2 hours from the Start and End time.  However, there are some 
that have a 24 hour difference.  Is there a way to completely clear out the 
DHCP lease time and restart the DHCP server.  These leases started almost 3 
hours after I had modified the default lease time.

 

Thanks


Dwane
