About Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP)
The iMcV-FiberLinX-II module includes a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP)
client. By default, the DHCP client is disabled. When a DHCP server is enabled on
the network, the DHCP client will initiate a dialogue with the server during the boot
up sequence. The server will then issue an IP address, Default Gateway address and
Subnet mask to the module. After the new IP address is received, the iMcV-
FiberLinX-II will reboot with the new IP address. When a DHCP server is not on the
network, ensure that DHCP is disabled and use iConfig or serial configuration to
manually set the IP addresses (refer to the Serial Configuration/Telnet Session section
for DHCP Enable/Disable information).
If an IP address is already assigned to the device, and DHCP is then enabled, that
original IP address is saved. When DHCP is disabled, the saved IP address will be
reinstated and the device will reboot.
