Finding my DHCP server?

[joeserver]

Hello all,

There is DHCP setup on the network & I cant seem to find it on any of the servers. Is there any way I can find which server the DHCP IP's is coming from?

Thanks in advance,

Joeserver,

Have a look at this article which explains what the dhcploc.exe file does.

Also you can use network monitor and analyse packets called DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST, DHCPACKNOWLEDGE etc

Can you not install the DHCP snap in on a server/workstation then right click on it and look at "authorised servers". This will tell you which servers have been authorised in AD.

To retrieve your DHCP server's IP, go to a client that uses DHCP. Open a command prompt and type "ipconfig /all" (no quotes).
