Hello, i reopen a thread similar to one else of mine becouse some thigns are stillunclear to me:
ill try keep in mind that a lease is actually an expiration date, it makes it clear this way.
But i wanted to tell you that almost every night i shutdown my pc and still have the same ip address even if powered down 3-4 days.
Why my ip address has't be given to someone else the time i had y comp closed?
So its not static, its not dynamic, is it mapped(assigned by ISP's dhcp a
But the differnce betwewen static and mapped is that mapped is a static reserved assignment by dhcp with an infinite lease(expiration date). But doesn that make it static also?
But then again i didn't pay for a static one!
Also i would like to ask what the real purpose of having an expiration ip address date since if we have the pc on for days the lease will get renewed and renewed all the time.
