You shouldn't lose it if you re-boot - you have to be disconnected for a set period of time before the address is available to be given out to others (4 hours ??). Even after that time, I think you will get the same IP address back if the dhcp server has not given it away to someone else.
I don't think a re-start of the dhcp server will have any effect.
Of course, I too could be wrong .....
