I encountered a problem yesterday where my IP was not changing, I should have gotten a new lease from the DHCP server.
I needed to find which server was giving me my leases, I didn’t know where this information was stored.
Anyway, its here!

cat /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-xxxxx-eno1.lease |
It should give you information like this, look around because different flavors of Linux will store the lease in a different location.
