I had dinner with him last night, I got the impression he has not been on here in a LONG LONG time.. he is too busy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Correct me if I'm wrong, but using DHCP is usually indicative of a dynamic vice a static IP address, correct? I do admit that a computer that is left on and only restarted when necessary will most likely keep the same IP address for a long while. I could be wrong, though, as I'm no CCNA.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea if when the PC needs to renew its DHCP license that same address is still available and hasnt been recycled it will continue to have the same one. Normally DHCP will assign the address with a 3 day lease, if after the 3 days it isn't renewed then that IP will go back into the pool and re-assigned. But most of the time people log on enough and keep the addresses. However the ISP can alter the time that the leases are kept as well as how things are handled. But yea normally you keep renewing, you could pretty much keep the same address and depending on the ISP a release and renew will not give you a new IP.She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Um for CCNA you dont really need a "LAB" Having a couple switches and a router is nice, but you can learn alot of it just using a simulation program on your PC If you check ebay there are a ton of people selling switch router combo's specific for CCNA..not to expensive She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
