Lars just cleared the TCP/IP network information from his Windows NT 4.0 workstation. Which
command should he use to receive new configuration?
A.
Ipconfig /release
B.
Ipconfig /renew
C.
Ipconfig /clear
D.
Ipconfig /reset
Explanation:
To have a new configuration assigned immediately, a renew is issued.
Incorrect Answers:
A: This is the actual command that was used to do the clear of the information. Now, after
releasing the current configuration, the adapter will eventually go out and get a new configuration.
There are some differences between Windows NT and Windows 2000, for example Windows
2000 – if it doesn’t get a DHCP response, will generate an APIPA, which is a special private IP
address. However, the thing to note here is that after a release the system MAY eventually receive
a new configuration, where using the renew parameter will request the information be assigned
immediately.
C: There are no such parameters for the ipconfig command.
D: There are no such parameters for the ipconfig command.
