DESCRIPTION: This command is used to set the network parameters for operation of
an Ethernet port via either a DHCP or BOOTP server.
Initially the board does not have a valid Ethernet interface
configuration, and, therefore, this interface is inoperable. The initial
configuration must be done either manually from a serial interface
using the command NET, or, if a DHCP or BOOTP server is available,
it can be done automatically by the DHCP command.
Manually configured parameters are permanently stored. Parameters
configured using the DHCP command are temporary and will be lost if
the system is reset or cold started.
Some products require that the IP address be set to 255.255.255.255
with the NET command prior to using the DHCP command.
USAGE: Program NetBootLoader (normal operation)
