ip dhcp release
Use the ip dhcp release command to transmit a message to the DHCP server requesting termination of the
IP address lease on that interface.
If you are currently connected to the unit using a Telnet session through the Ethernet
interface, using the ip dhcp release command will terminate your Telnet session and
render your Telnet capability inoperable until a new IP address is assigned by the
DHCP server.

Functional Notes
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows interfaces to acquire a dynamically-assigned IP address
from a configured DHCP server on the network. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) require the use of
DHCP when connecting to their services. Using DHCP reduces the number of dedicated IP addresses the ISP
must obtain. Consult your ISP to determine the proper values for the
client-id
and
hostname
fields.
Usage Examples
The following example releases the IP address assigned (by DHCP) on the Ethernet interface (eth 0/1):
(config)#
int eth 0/1
(config-eth 0/1)#
ip dhcp release
