The default lease time for the DHCP server is 24 hours. When setting the lease time on your DHCP server, consider your goals, usage patterns of your site, and service arrangements for your DHCP server. Use the following questions to help you decide on an appropriate lease time. Do you have more users than addresses?

The DHCP server does not notify the clients when you delete their active IP address lease. If you delete an active lease for a client that is still on the network without releasing the IP address from the client, you might end up with duplicate IP address assignments on your network.

A lease is defined as the time period for which a DHCP server allocates a network address to a client. The lease might be extended (renewed) upon subsequent requests. If the client no longer needs the address, it can release the address back to the server before the lease is up.

A lease will be recorded on the balance sheet as a right-of-use (ROU) asset and lease liability. The lease liability is the payment obligation over the term of the lease contract, while the ROU asset represents the control of the asset under the lease contract.

The lease table on the Network Services > DHCP > IPv4 Lease Table tab shows the current leases issued by the DHCP server, including information about the start date and the date when the lease will expire.

To display DHCP configuration information: Open a command prompt. Use ipconfig /all to display all IP configuration information. Observe whether you have any network adapters that are DHCP Enabled. If so, identify your DHCP Server, when it shows Lease Obtained, and when it shows Lease Expires.

The DHCP Client Table contains information about the devices connected to the router either wired or wirelessly. It displays the name of the device, the interface it is connected to, the duration until the connection expires, and the assigned IP and MAC addresses.

In operating lease accounting, the lessor reports the leased asset on the balance sheet and the interest revenue and the asset depreciation on the income statement. The lessor reports the lease payment as the cash inflow on its cash flow statement.
