APIPA - Automatic Private IP Addressing uses a range of addresses 169.254.0.0-169.254.255.255 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. If your address starts with 169.254, there is a good chance you are using APIPA.

What is apipa process?

APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) is a feature in Windows operating systems that allows devices to automatically assign themselves a private IP address in the absence of a DHCP server. When a device with APIPA enabled cannot find a DHCP server to assign it an IP address, it will assign itself an IP address in the range of 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254. This ensures that the device can still communicate on the local network, even without a DHCP server.


How does apipa works?

Short for Automatic Private IPAddressing, a feature of later Windows operating systems. With APIPA, DHCP clients can automatically self-configure an IP address and subnet mask when a DHCP server isn't available. When a DHCP client boots up, it first looks for a DHCP server in order to obtain an IP address and subnet mask. If the client is unable to find the information, it uses APIPA to automatically configure itself with an IP address from a range that has been reserved especially for Microsoft. The IP address range is 169.254.0.1 through 169.254.255.254. The client also configures itself with a default class B subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. A client uses the self-configured IP address until a DHCP server becomes available.The APIPA service also checks regularly for the presence of a DHCP server (every five minutes, according to Microsoft). If it detects a DHCP server on the network, APIPA stops, and the DHCP server replaces the APIPA networking addresses with dynamically assigned addresses.APIPA is meant for nonrouted small business environments, usually less than 25 clients.
