The DHCP allocator has disabled itself on IP address %1, since the IP address is outside the %2/%3 scope from which addresses are being allocated to DHCP clients. To enable the DHCP allocator on this IP address, please change the scope to include the IP address, or change the IP address to fall within the scope.

The IP address is not within the scope of addresses allocated for Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) or Routing and Remote Access network address translation (NAT).

The most probable cause is incorrect manual configuration of the IP address.

To automatically reconfigure the IP address, disable and then re-enable either ICS or the Routing and Remote Access NAT component.

To disable and re-enable ICS

1. In Windows Explorer, click My Network Places.
2. Right-click the ICS adapter that you want to share, and then select Properties.
3. Click the Advanced tab.
4. In the Internet Connection sharing area, clear the Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection box, and then click OK.
5. In the Network Connections window, right-click the ICS adapter, and then select Properties.
6. Click the Advanced tab.
7. Select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection box, and then click OK.

You can disable and then re-enable the Routing and Remote Access NAT component by opening Routing and Remote Access in Administrative Tools.
