Half way through the lease the client tries to renew the lease. It'll try to get the same one, but the server doesn't have to comply. It can also release the lease. What the server does when it next requests an IP is up to the server. It may give you a different one, it may give you the same one (that could be time- dependent, it could be always). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.25.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Apr 28 21:49:45 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
