Check the DHCP lease for the clients

Windows® 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me clients have a utility that displays the client's MAC address and DHCP lease information. It also allows you to release and renew DHCP leases. To check the DHCP lease for the client, complete the following steps:
  1. Open an MS-DOS Command prompt.
  2. Run WINIPCFG.
Note: This utility does not dynamically update the displayed information, so it is necessary to rerun the utility to view updated status.
