Behavior with "--lastlease" when DHCP server comes back

Hi,
Wanted to know the behavior if dhcpcd is started with --lastlease option
and it actually re-uses the last lease when dhcp server disappears.

1) Does it try to renew the lease in case the server comes back or does it
keep that previous lease forever? If it does retry, how often?

2) Same question, with additional --persistent option.

Thanks
