Hello.
You can't set the lease duration to 0:0:0 that it is recognized as invalid in the Windows DHCP server.
In the scenarios that a scope that has a short lease duration, client will only attempt to renew the lease on background in a short interval. It will not experience network disconnect because it can renew the IP address lease.
For your information:
