Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client
This procedure explains how to activate and deactivate the DHCP client
on the switch. When the client is activated, the switch obtains its IP
configuration, such as its IP address and subnet mask, from a DHCP
server on your network. Before performing the procedure, note the
following:
ˆ
An IP address and subnet mask are not required for normal network
operations of the switch. Values for these parameters are only required
if you want to remotely manage the device with a web browser.
ˆ
A gateway address is only required if you want to remotely manage the
device from a remote management station that is separated from the
switch by a router.
ˆ
The DHCP client is disabled by default on the switch.
ˆ
The DHCP client does not support BOOTP servers.
To activate or deactivate the DHCP client on the switch, perform the
following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type B to select Basic Switch Configuration .
The Basic Switch Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 4 on page 30.
2. From the Basic Switch Configuration Menu, type I to select System IP
Configuration .
The System IP Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 5 on page 31.
3. Type D to select Enable/Disable DHCP Mode .
The following prompt is displayed:
Enable or Disable DHCP mode (E/D)>
4. Type E to select Enable or D to select Disable.
If you enable the client, it immediately begins to send queries to the
DHCP server. It continues to send queries until it receives a response.
5. Type Q to select Quit to previous menu and save your changes.
