Caution

Record the MAC address of your switch before you begin this
procedure.

To activate or deactivate the DHCP client on the switch, do the following
procedure:

1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System

folder.

The System folder expands.

2. From the System folder, select IP Setup.

The IP Setup Page is shown in Figure 5 on page 24.

3. From the pull-down menu next to the DHCP Mode field, select Enable

or Disable.

By default, this field is set to Disable.

4. Click Apply.

If you enable the DHCP client, the web server connection to the switch
will be lost.

Before you disable the DHCP client, you need to assign a new System
IP Address
value in “Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and
Gateway Address” on page 24.
Record this value for future use.

Caution

Enabling or disabling DHCP ends your management session.

Caution

If you do not select Save Configuration to Flash, the DHCP mode
and the IP Address reverts to the previous configuration when you
power cycle the switch.

5. Log on to the switch with the new IP address and immediately save

your configuration by selecting Save Configuration to Flash from the
main menu on the left side of the page.

If you enable DHCP and then save your configuration, you save the IP
address obtained from the DHCP server.
