The DHCP client, computer name, declined the address address.

Source Event Log Event ID Event Type
DhcpServer   1019  

Explanation:

During the process of renewing an Internet Protocol (IP) address lease, the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client sent a DHCPDECLINE message back to the DHCP server declining the IP address. The client declined the address because it received a DHCPACK from the server with the wrong configuration parameters.

User Action:

No user action is needed. The DHCP service responds to the DHCPDECLINE message with a DHCPNAK message. This response forces the client to release its current IP address and return to its initializing state. The client then attempts to lease a new IP address from the server.
