Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(1)T.
The server detects conflicts using ping. The client detects conflicts using gratuitous Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP). If an address conflict is detected, the address is removed from the pool
and the address will not be assigned until an administrator resolves the conflict.
Examples
The following example displays the detection method and detection time for all IP addresses the
DHCP server has offered that have conflicts with other devices. Table 3 lists descriptions of the fields
in the example.
