How can I fix an IP conflict?
Question:
How can I fix an IP conflict?
Answer:
Often this occurs when the network or parts of a network is not
using DHCP to automatically
assign IP addresses to computers and something on the network has
been manually assigned the same IP address as you.
If you're computer has DHCP enabled often simply rebooting the
computer allowing it to get a new address assigned to it will
resolve the issue.
If you're not sure if you're using DHCP or are using a static IP
address either try to locate the computer or device using the IP
address and/or manually change your IP address to something else,
for example if the address was 192.168.1.105 changing it to
192.168.1.112. Additional information about how to change your IP
address can be found on document CH00784.
