Problem: DHCP Address Reservation Inactive

Problem: DHCP Address Reservation Inactive

I just recently added a reservation to my DHCP scope for a particular IP address.  This IP address is for an HP laser Printer.

However, it says under leases that it is inactive.  How do I force it to become active?

Thanks.

Solution : DHCP Address Reservation Inactive

if you have the IP hard set, then this will have no effect on DHCP…  You need to clear the IP settings on the printer and then set the printer for DHCP.  then reboot.
