IP addresses to devices. Because IP addresses are a limited resource, the DHCP server periodically renews
the device lease on the IP address. If a phone loses the IP address for any reason, or if some other device
on the network is assigned the same IP address, the communication between the SIP proxy and the phone
is either severed or degraded. Whenever an expected SIP response is not received within a programmable
amount of time after the corresponding SIP command is sent, the DHCP Timeout on Renewal parameter
causes the device to request a renewal of its IP address. If the DHCP server returns the IP address that
it originally assigned to the phone, the DHCP assignment is presumed to be operating correctly. Otherwise,
the phone resets to try to fix the issue.
