CLI – Specify the management interface, and set the IP Address Mode to
DHCP or BOOTP.
Renewing DCHP – DHCP may lease addresses to clients indefinitely or
for a specific period of time. If the address expires or the switch is moved
to another network segment, you will lose management access to the
switch. In this case, you can reboot the switch or submit a client request to
restart DHCP service.
Web – If the address assigned by DHCP is no longer functioning, you will
not be able to renew the IP settings via the web interface. You can only
restart DHCP service via the Web interface if the current address is still
available.
CLI – Enter the following command to restart DHCP service.
Managing Firmware
You can upload/download firmware to or from a TFTP server. By saving
runtime code to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded
to the switch to restore operation. You can set the switch to use new
firmware without overwriting the previous version. The switch also allows
a runtime code file to be copied to or from another switch unit in the
stack.
