DHCP Auto Configuration Settings
•
DHCP Auto Configuration Options
—
This option is enabled by default. When AP comes up with
factory defaults, it first tries to auto configure using DHCP options.
During Auto Configuration:
◦
AP boots up with only Ethernet interface enabled and WLAN interfaces down.
◦
No services are available to User (except User Interfaces).
◦
DHCP Auto Configuration Options is disabled automatically after Wait Interval or TFTP upload
of Configuration file whichever is earlier.
◦
Disabling the DHCP client (i.e., configure use a static IP address) or disabling DHCP Auto
Configuration Options immediately aborts Auto configuration.
DHCP client automatically broadcasts requests for DHCP options 66 and 67. If DHCP and DHCP Auto
Configuration Options are enabled, Access Point is Auto configured during next reboot considering the
information received from DHCP Server for DHCP requests.
Configuration upload operation by User/Cisco overrides the Auto Configuration so that the chosen
configuration file is given preference. In any other cases of rebooting the AP such as firmware upgrade
or reboot operations, existing Auto Configuration settings will be effective.
Note
•
TFTP Server IPv4 Address/Host Name
—
If you configure TFTP server address, it is used in case of
failure to retrieve file from other TFTP Servers specified by DHCP server during Auto Configuration.
Enter IPv4 address or hostname information. If it happens to be in hostname format DNS server must
be available to translate hostname into IP address.
The value is used during the Auto Configuration procedure during next boot-up.
