How do I change the default APIPA range from 169.254.xx.xx or the one stored by DHCP to a custom IP Address range in the TCP/IP stack for Windows Server 2008?

IPAutoconfigurationAddress

Key: Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\interfaceGUID

Value Type: REG_SZ—String

Valid Range: Change to a valid IPv4 address

Default: None

Description: This value stores the APIPA autoconfiguration IPv4 address chosen by the DHCP client.

Note: “This value should not be altered unless there is a specific requirement”
