What is a DHCP lease
Curious about how devices get IP addresses on a network? In this short video, we explain what a DHCP lease is and why it matters. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) automatically assigns IP addresses to devices, and a lease is the temporary time period that an IP address is allocated to a device. But what happens when the lease expires? Can it be renewed? Why do networks use leases instead of permanent IPs? We break it all down in simple terms with clear examples so you can understand how your home or office network manages connected devices. Whether you're a beginner or brushing up on networking basics, this video will help you grasp a key concept in IP address management.
