Parameters/Attributes
Example
NET-DHCP
Set DHCP mode.
Only 1 is relevant
for the mode value. To
disable DHCP, the user
must configure a static
IP address for the
device.
Connecting Ethernet to
devices with DHCP
may take more time in
some networks.
To connect with a
randomly assigned IP
by DHCP, specify the
device DNS name (if
available) using the
NAME
command. You
can also get an
assigned IP by direct
connection to USB or
RS-232 protocol port, if
available.
For proper settings
consult your network
administrator.
