Configuration procedure
The following describes only the configuration on Switch B serving as a client.
# Configure VLAN-interface 1 to dynamically obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] interface vlan-interface 1
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface1] ip address bootp-alloc
# Use the
display bootp client
command to view the IP address assigned to the BOOTP client.
To make the BOOTP client obtain an IP address from the DHCP server, you need to perform
additional configurations on the DHCP server.
