<br>
<span style=" font-size: 11pt;">I am working on a security research project in an isolated internal network, so fortunately there will not be any frustrated or angry clients :-). Basically the research is trying to find a way to randomly change clients' IP addresses so that any IP-based attack or reconnaissance might be <span style=" font-size: 9pt;">thwarted<span style=" font-size: 11pt;">, that is why I am looking into the DHCP server to see if I can use it to achieve the goal. Any suggestions are very appreciated.<br>

<span style=" font-family:'Courier New'; font-size: 9pt;">This seems a little like theorizing/proposing that; If people move every couple of weeks, someone is unlikely to target them individually/personally to break into their residence and steal all their stuff [because they won't know where they live...]<br>
<br>
And while it's [perhaps] true, it seems like a fairly ineffective and highly disruptive "technique" to attempt to reduce break-ins and theft.<br>
[i.e. The cost is vastly higher than any possible benefit that might be gained, at least for the *overwhelming* majority of the population.]<br>
<br>
Just my two cents.<br>
But perhaps I misunderstand the target population and the "protection" you envision.<br>
