[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease cmdlet deletes one or more IPv4 lease records from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service.
If you specify the ScopeId parameter, all of the leases for the specified scope are deleted.
If you specify the IPAddress parameter, the leases for clients identified by one or more specified IP addresses are deleted. If you specify the ClientId and the ScopeId parameters, the lease for the specified client identifier (ID) from the specified scope is deleted.
If you specify the BadLeases and the ScopeId parameters, this cmdlet removes all of the bad lease records for the specified scope.
If you specify the BadLeases parameter without the ScopeId parameter, this cmdlet removes all of the bad leases from all of the scopes on the DHCP server service.
Examples
Example 1: Delete leases in a scope
PS C:\> Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -ScopeId 10.10.10.0This example deletes all of the IPv4 address leases in the scope 10.10.10.0 from the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com.
Example 2: Delete leases for multiple addresses
PS C:\> Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -IPAddress 10.10.10.10,20.20.20.20This example deletes the IPv4 address leases for 10.10.10.10 and 10.20.20.20 from the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com.
Example 3: Delete leases for specified clients
PS C:\> Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -ScopeId 10.10.10.0 -ClientId "F0-DE-F1-7A-00-5E","00-24-D7-C5-25-B0"This example deletes the IPv4 address leases from the DHCPv4 scope 10.10.10.0 for the clients identified by the client IDs F0-DE-F1-7A-00-5E and 00-24-D7-C5-25-B0.
Example 4: Delete declined leases in a scope
PS C:\> Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -ScopeId 10.10.10.0 -BadLeasesThis example deletes all of the bad, or declined, IPv4 address leases in the scope 10.10.10.0 from the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com.
Example 5: Delete declined leases by using the pipeline
PS C:\> Get-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" | Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -BadLeases | Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -BadLeasesThis example deletes all of the bad, or declined, IPv4 address leases from all of the scopes on the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com. The Get-DhcpServerv4Scope cmdlet returns all of the scope objects and the scope objects are piped into the Get-DhcpServerv4Lease cmdlet. The Get-DhcpServerv4Lease cmdlet returns the bad address lease objects from all the scopes and the bad address lease objects are piped into this cmdlet, which deletes all of the bad address leases.
Example 6: Delete leases in a scope by using the pipeline
PS C:\> Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" -ScopeId 10.10.10.0 -AllLeases | Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com"This example deletes all IPv4 address leases from the scope 10.10.10.0. The command works by pipelining from the first cmdlet Get-DhcpServerv4Lease cmdlet returns the IPv4 address lease objects and the IPv4 address lease objects are piped into this cmdlet, which deletes the bad address leases.
Example 7: Delete all the leases on all the scopes on a computer
PS C:\> Get-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com" | Remove-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName "dhcpserver.contoso.com"This example deletes all of the IPv4 address leases from all of the DHCPv4 scopes on the DHCP server service that runs on the computer named dhcpserver.contoso.com. The Get-DhcpServerv4Scope cmdlet returns the DHCPv4 scope objects and the DHCPv4 scope objects are piped into this cmdlet, which deletes each of the address leases.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job.
Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt.
You can continue to work in the session while the job completes.
To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets.
To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-BadLeases
Specifies that all of the bad IP address leases are deleted. An IPv4 address lease which is declined by a client because of an IPv4 address conflict is marked as bad by the DHCP server service.

| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-CimSession
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
