Hello all.

My DHCP server says that its running out of addresses but I have only 100
leases. My scope is of about 225 addresses but under scope leases I only see
about 100 computers/leases. Where are the rest? I had to change the lease
duration to 1 day but that didnt help too much. If I go through the list of
leases and find ones that are not in there and ping them, I get no replies.
That means that they are availble but DHCP is not giving them out....?????
Some users do also connect via RDP so some leases show up as RAS.

Any clues???????? Thanks guys.
 
Hello Asif,

Maybe theire is an exclusion range configured?

Meinolf,

I do have an some exclusion of about 30 addresses. But there should be
another 100 or close to it. They all cant be being used. I have to go and
delete some addresses to give to users....
 
Anyone???????????????

Figured it out!!!!!

No one really replies around here.

I simply right clicked on the scope and selected reconcile. This checks the
DHCP database against that of the registry and makes the changes. Once I did
that all the addresses showed up. Thanks.
 
Sorry I didn´t see this article earlier.
Scope reconcile is a route task for me.

Cheers!
