Assigning Switch Information
Configuring the Client
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a switch to download a
configuration file and new image from a DHCP server:
This example uses a Layer 3 SVI interface on VLAN 99 to enable DHCP-based autoconfiguration with
a saved configuration:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch(config)#
boot host dhcp
Switch(config)#
boot host retry timeout 300
Switch(config)#
banner config-save ^C Caution - Saving Configuration File to NVRAM May
Cause You to No longer Automatically Download Configuration Files at Reboot^C
Switch(config)#
vlan 99
Switch(config-vlan)#
interface vlan 99
Switch(config-if)#
no shutdown
Switch(config-if)#
end
Switch#
show boot
BOOT path-list:
Config file: flash:/config.text
Private Config file: flash:/private-config.text
Enable Break: no

HELPER path-list:
