B	The computer will generate an APIPA address
C	The computer will disable its TCP/IP protocol stack

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -If the device does not receive an IP address, which happens when there is no DHCP server on the network or when the DHCP server is not responding, the device assigns itself an address.

Detailed explanation-2: -ipconfig /renew renews the lease on dynamic (DHCP-assigned) IP addresses. ipconfig /release releases dynamic addresses. These activities will show you how to use ipconfig /renew and ipconfig /release.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is the first step in troubleshooting an issue where a single computer is unable to lease an address? When a single computer is unable to lease an address, the first troubleshooting step is to confirm that the computer has a physical connection to the network.
