IP addresses are granted by the DHCP server for the duration you specify.

You can force a quick release by specifying a short lease, e.g. 1 hour.

There you have it. The answer from a Microsoft MVP. Maybe a more specific

question to supplement Saqib's is, "Is there a way via GPO to have XP clients

release their IP addresses at shutdown?

You mean can you use a shutdown script to run "IPCONFIG /Release"? ;-)

hehe...no. I mean is there a setting that we can change via Group Policy to

have our clients release their IP addresses at shutdown?

No, but you can do it in a shutdown script.

This is cool! THE Kelly from Kelly's Korner. I have used your site in the

past. Saqib and I work for a big company. One of our CCIEs wants Windows to

release leases on shutdown. So, we need to implement this from the DHCP

server more than likely as there is a registry key to to this but it exists

under the interface registry key (which is generated when the NIC is added to

the system during mini-setup).

lends some insight as how to do this server-side.
