Data type

Range

Default value

REG_EXPAND_SZ

Path

Systemroot \System32\dhcp

Description

Specifies the directory where the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client information database files and audit log files are stored. If you change the value of this entry, DHCP stores new database files in this location, but it does not move existing database files to the new location.

By default, database files and audit log files are stored in the same directory. The location of log files is determined by the value of the DhcpLogFilePath entry.

Change method

To change the value of this entry, use the DHCP Manager snap-in. Right-click the name of the server, click Properties, click the Advanced tab, and enter a new path in the Database path field.
