Re: How to release and renew all computer IP Address on the same host computer withou

IPconfig command only reads and makes changes to the locally attached NIC and makes no communication to other machines on the LAN. If DHCP is configured correctly then there should be no need to renew the IP addresses of the machines. Also the computer will automatically contact the DHCP server half way between the lease time to ask if it can keep it's current IP address. For example if the lease was 1 day then after 12 hours the machine will request to keep the IP address that it currently has for another day.

Microsoft Corporation - The command configuration applies to Vista,7 and Windows 8

The only possible way to complete what you wish is to disable and then re-enable the DHCP service on your router

Hope This Helps,
Josh! :)

Why do you want to do this?
Knowing that we may be able to suggest a reasonable alternative.

Hi ShadowJK,

Yeah man I know that DHCP will give new IP Address from its pool, I want it manually because sometime the client computer keep the old cached IP Address and can't ping other computer that has it's IP Address renewed, sometime I just feel like dependent the DHCP server is waste of time. That's why I am asking if the IPconfig /release /renew command or any other windows built-in command that I can use to remotely renew the IP Address of a remote computer.

You could try PsExec:
PsExec
This will allow you to run a command on a networked computer.
Be sure you don't run "ipconfig /release" on the remote computer because after that it will not have an IP address and you loose control.

The tool Lmiller provided should work. If you have a problem with pinging devices you can just use their computer names rather than IP addresses to ping them. Typically computers will use their cached IP address to avoid IP address conflict.
