all i want to know is about those 3 commands. please help.

The functions of those commands, desertwind has already told. I think you are confused about what is a IP address. This might help

[assddd]

if you know please just tell me what exactly each command do ?

i dont understand anything if you tell me it releases ip address from adapter (i dont even know what adapter is).

[desertwind]

adapter here means your network card.

release will release the current ip address that is assigned to your card by dhcp.

renew will get you a new ip address from dhcp.

hey don't be mean to the kid

Listen up kid......

Your Ethernet card has a MACaddress and a IP address...You can do nothing to the MAC address it is fixed....so forget mac address.....

To communicate to another machine on the network connected via the Ethernet card You need an IP address...

Now...the IP address can be dynamic(ie can be given by your server or router) or it can be static(You mention it as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).

When you say it should be dynamic, You can use the commands listed by the great you.

when you give the release command, you(computer/ethernet card) tell the router/server "I don't require the IP given by you anymore, you can give it to someone else"

When you give the renew command, you tell the router/server "I want to keep the address for some more time"(since it might expire after sometime) or "Give me another IP address since mine is gonna expire".........

Got it?
