dhcp lease-time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Why is the default lease-time set to only 10 minutes (600 seconds)
in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf (CentOS-6.2) as distributed?

Why is not set to a much longer time?
Is there any disadvantage in doing that?
Or conversely, is a short lease-time safer in some way?
