  2. Side effects of releasing/renewing IP addresses?


    There is a fairly well know security package that is causing some users problems on Win 10 AU - browser connections get blocked. (Other TCP/IP connectivity is unaffected - just browsers.) A user of the product found that releasing and renewing DHCP-provided IP address - i.e., doing "ipconfig /release" followed by ipconfig /renew"" temporarily fixes the problem. Can someone explain to me what doing a release/renew does to Windows such that a program - even a program with deeply embedded hooks - would even know this has happened.

    Obviously the computer will get a new IP address from DHCP. (Which, for many DHCP servers, will likely be the same as the old one.) If it gets a new address, will this make Windows switch it's network profile from "Private" to "Guest or Public"? (I know the security package will see that.)

    And a few more questions relating to /release and /renew but unrelated to the problem:
    I see there are IPv6 versions of /release and /renew. Does that mean that /release and /renew apply to only IPv4 addresses, or do those commands apply to both IPv4 and IPv6? If only IPv4, is there a way to release and renew all addresses? The DHCP server supplied a list of DNS servers as part of the DHCP handshake. Does the release and renew process also renew the list of DNS servers? If so, is there the same division of IPv4 and IPv6?

    Can't connect to MY Minecraft server after DNS flush

    Hi Kyle,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.

    Since the DNS is flushed, you may want to renew ipconfig and check if it works. To renew the ipconfig follow the steps listed below:

    Renew ipconfig:

    • Search for Command Prompt from the Start menu and choose
      Command Prompt (admin).
    • Copy paste the following commands and hit Enter:

      ipconfig /release

      ipconfig /renew
    • Restart the machine once the commands are executed and check if the issue persists.

    If the issue persists, as the Pcs are in domain, I suggest you to post your query in the
    TechNet IT Pro forums, where we have support professionals equipped with the knowledge
    on game servers.

    Regards,
