DHCP Configuration Settings
Switched Rack PDU settings
The TCP/IP option in the Network menu of the Web interface and control
console accesses the network settings for the Switched Rack PDU.
Three settings (Port Speed, Host Name, and Domain Name) are available
regardless of the TCP/IP option’s Boot mode selection, and three settings
(Vendor Class, Client ID, and User Class) are available for any Boot
mode selection except Manual.
When Boot mode is set to DHCP & BOOTP, two options are available:
• After IP Assignment in the control console (or Remain in DHCP &
BOOTP mode after accepting TCP/IP settings in the Web interface):
By default, this option switches Boot mode to the selection that
reflects the server that provided the TCP/IP settings (DHCP Only or
BOOTP Only).
• DHCP Cookie Is in the control console (or Require vendor specific
cookie to accept DHCP Address in the Web interface): By default,
this option requires that the DHCP responses include the APC cookie
in order to be valid.
For more information about the APC cookie, see DHCP
response options .
