DHCP Auto Configuration Settings
This window is used to enable the DHCP Autoconfiguration feature on the Switch. When enabled, the Switch is instructed to
receive a configuration file from a TFTP server, which will set the Switch to become a DHCP client automatically on boot up. To
employ this method, the DHCP server must be set up to deliver the TFTP server IP address and configuration file name
information in the DHCP reply packet. The TFTP server must be up and running and hold the necessary configuration file stored
in its base directory when the request is received from the Switch. For more information about loading a configuration file for use
by a client, see the DHCP server and/or TFTP server software instructions. The user may also consult the Upload screen
description located in the Maintenance section of this manual.
If the Switch is unable to complete the DHCP auto configuration, the previously saved configuration file present in the Switch’s
memory will be used.
To view this window, click
Administration > DHCP Auto Configuration Settings
, as shown below:
