Detecting an IP address conflict with Microsoft’s DHCP Server

An IP address conflict detection option can be enabled within Microsoft’s DHCP Server software by accessing the Properties of the node and setting the Conflict Detection Attempts to a value other than 0.

dhcp_conflict_detection

A value other than 0 will mean the server will send a ping request for the address in question before assigning it.
