APIPA stands for Automatic Private IP Addressing. When you configure your computer to obtain IP Address automatically and a DHCP server cannot be contacted, then the computer will automatically assign an IP address from a specific range (169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254). Then this network will be isolated from all networks. Because it has no a default gateway and any other configuration parameters.
