MANAGING THE INTERNET PROTOCOL WITH THE IPCONFIG UTILITY
295
/release
Releases the IP address for the specified adapter.
/release6
Releases the IPv6 address for the specified adapter.
TIP
You??™ll find that Server Core provides support for a wide range of IPv6 commands and utilities.
These new features only support IPv6. You still use the older commands to work with Internet
Protocol Version 4 (IPv4), which is the current standard. You can learn more about IPv6 at
http://www.ipv6.org/
.
/renew
Renews the IPv4 address for the specified adapter. This is one of the most common
ways to fix errors with a network adapter. To renew the addresses for all adapters on the server
(usually not necessary and could interrupt user tasks), type
IPConfig /renew
and press Enter.
In most cases, you??™ll want to renew a specific adapter. Using the network shown in Figures 11.1
and 11.2 as a basis, you??™d type
IPConfig /renew ???Local Area Connection 2???
and press Enter
to renew the address for the second adapter. You can also use the asterisk (*) wildcard character
for the adapter names. For example, typing
IPConfig /renew Local*
and pressing Enter would
renew the addresses for every adapter that begins with Local in its name.
