Activating the BOOTP and DHCP Services

Note

For guidelines or background information on BOOTP and DHCP,
refer to the section Activating the BOOTP and DHCP Services on
page 46.

To activate or deactivate the BOOTP and DHCP protocols on the switch
from a web browser management interface, perform the following
procedure:

1. From the Home Page, select Configuration.

The Configuration window is displayed with the System menu
option selected by default.

2. If the System menu option is not selected, select it and then select the

General tab.

The General window is displayed, as shown in Figure 76 on page
194.

3. In the BOOTP/DHCP options in the General tab window, click either

Enable or Disable.

Note

If you activated BOOTP/DHCP, the switch immediately begins to
query the network for a BOOTP or DHCP server. The switch
continues to query the network for its IP configuration until it
receives a response.

Note

A change to the IP address of the switch will result in the loss of the
remote management interface. You could restart the management
interface using the switch’s new IP address.
