ENABLE DHCPBOOTP

Syntax

enable dhcpbootp

Parameters

None.

Description

This command activates the DHCP and BOOTP client software on the
switch. When activated, the switch obtains its IP configuration from a
DHCP or BOOTP server on your network, whenever the unit is power
cycled or reset. The client software makes continuous requests for its IP
configuration until a DHCP or BOOTP server responds.

If you assigned the switch an IP address manually, the address is
discarded when DHCP and BOOTP are activated.

The default setting for DHCP and BOOTP is disabled.

Note

You cannot manually assign an IP address or subnet mask to a
switch once the DHCP and BOOTP client software have been
activated. To disable DHCP and BOOTP, refer to the DISABLE
DHCPBOOTP command.

Example

The following command activates the DHCP and BOOTP client software
on the switch:

enable dhcpbootp
