Advanced Configuration
This section provides information about dynamic allocation of IP addresses and security management based on the
authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) mechanism, and includes the following topics:
• Configuring IP Addresses through DHCP
• Configuring IP Addresses through BOOTP
• Security Management and Password Configuration
When configuring/receiving IP addresses through DHCP and BOOTP, the configuration received from these servers
includes the IP address, and may include subnet mask and default gateway.
Retrieving an IP Address From a DHCP Server
When using the DHCP protocol to retrieve an IP address, the device acts as a DHCP client. To retrieve an IP address
from a DHCP server, perform the following steps:
1. Select and connect any port to a DHCP server or to a subnet that has a DHCP server on it, in order to retrieve the
IP address.
2. Enter the following commands to use the selected port for receiving the IP address. In the following example, the
commands are based on the port type used for configuration.
console# configure
console(config)# snmp-server community priate rw 10.1.1.1 view bobi
console(config)# exit
