Use DHCP only one time

This is my /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0 file.
#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.68.75
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 172.16.68.0
broadcast 17.16.68.255
gateway 172.16.68.1
I currently have it setup to use a static IP address, however I really prefer to use DHCP so I can use MAC address reservations and manage them from my router. The only problem I’m having is, a couple of times a day this server goes down, and the logs indicate it is trying to renew its ip. Is there a way to do this, either at boot or the network starting?

Set longer lease times for DHCP?

@muru do you have an example?

Not without knowing what DHCP server you're using.

My mistake, the lease time is set on the server, not the client, so I guess that won’t work.

Why won't it work ? Have you tried ?
