ENABLE DHCPBOOTP

Syntax

enable dhcpbootp

Parameters

None.

Description

This command activates DHCP and BOOTP on the switch. When
activated, these protocols instruct the switch to obtain its IP
configuration from a DHCP or BOOTP server on your network, whenever
the unit is power cycled or reset. The protocols make continuous
requests for the IP configuration until a DHCP or BOOTP server responds.

If you have 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 DHCP and BOOTP have been activated. To disable
DHCP and BOOTP, refer to the DISABLE DHCPBOOTP command.

Example

The following command activates DHCP and BOOTP:

enable dhcpbootp
