K
Type: This field contains additional information on the assignment.
The 'Type' field specifies how the address was assigned. This field can assume the
following values: 
– new: The computer has made its initial request. The DHCP server verifies the
uniqueness of the address that is to be assigned to the computer.
– unkn.: While verifying uniqueness, it was determined that the address has
already been assigned to another computer. Unfortunately, the DHCP server has
no means of obtaining additional information on this computer.

This address can no longer be used.
