Hi @adamdb17,

As per description, It is recommended to use passive detection mode only if there is a conflict with DHCP software.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client/server protocol that automatically provides an Internet Protocol (IP) host with its IP address and other related configuration information such as the subnet mask and default gateway.
