Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To be able to access the network resources, you must run the ipconfig/renew command on his computer.
Key Takeaway: - His computer displays an APIPA address because it cannot find a DHCP server. This can be avoided by assigning a static IP address, which means that the computer would not automatically be assigned a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server.
The easier option is to run the ipconfig /renew command to obtain a new address through the DHCP server and correct the problem.
