enable autoconfig
Restrictions
When autoconfig is enabled, the Switch becomes a DHCP client automatically (same
as: config ipif System dhcp). The DHCP server must have the TFTP server IP
address and configuration file name, and be configured to deliver this information
in the data field of the DHCP reply packet. The TFTP server must be running and
have the requested configuration file in its base directory when the request is
received from the Switch. Consult the DHCP server and TFTP server software
instructions for information on loading a boot file or configuration file.
Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
