Changing the DHCP Server IP address may result in losing connectivity to the security gateway, if the VPNmanager is on the private side of the security gateway. Also all active DHCP clients may require renewal through an OS utility (e.g., using winipcfg or ipconfig in Windows), or rebooting.

Note:

When changing the DHCP IP address range, execute an ipconfig release and renew command.
