int xn_dhcp_decline(DHCP_session * session);

Parameters

This routine sends a DHCPDECLINE message to the DHCP server, declining use of whatever IP address was obtained through xn_dhcp. This message is to be sent if the configuration parameters returned by the server are invalid. If you simply no longer need the IP address, you should call xn_dhcp_release.
