  • What is APIPA and how does it work?

    APIPA stands for Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA). It is a feature or characteristic in operating systems (eg. Windows) which enables computers to self-configure an IP address and subnet mask automatically when their DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server isn’t reachable.

  • What are the advantages of APIPA over DHCP?

    Advantages It can be used as a backup of DHCP because when DHCP stops working then APIPA has the ability to assign IP to the networking hosts. It stops unwanted broadcasting. It uses ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) to confirm the address isn’t currently in use.
