Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) is a feature in Windows operating systems that enables computers to automatically self-configure an IP address and subnet mask when their DHCP server isn’t reachable. The IP address range for APIPA is 169.254.0.1-169.254.255.254, and the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0.
