Modifying the DHCP Options Set Associated with a VPC
You can associate a default or custom DHCP options set with a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to apply the options it contains to instances launched in this VPC.
This action replaces the DHCP options set with another one, as you can associate a VPC with one DHCP options set only at a time.
When you modify the DHCP options set associated with a VPC, the options it contains are automatically applied to both existing instances and instances that you launch afterward. Existing instances apply these options within a few hours after you modify the DHCP options set, depending on their DHCP lease renewal frequency. You do not need to restart the instances. You can however force the renewal of your DHCP lease using the dhclient
command for Linux instances, or the ipconfig/renew
command for Windows instances.
