Using DHCP/BOOTP - Web
If your network provides DHCP/BOOTP services, you can configure the switch to be dynamically configured
by these services. Click System, IP. Specify the Management VLAN, set the IP Address Mode to DHCP or
BOOTP, and click Apply to save your changes.
The switch will broadcast a request for IP configuration settings on the next power reset. Otherwise, you can
click Restart DHCP to immediately request a new address.
Using DHCP/BOOTP - CLI
Specify the management interface, and set the IP address mode to DHCP or BOOTP, and then enter the
“ip dhcp restart” command:
Renewing DCHP
DHCP may lease addresses to clients indefinitely or for a specific period of time. If the address expires or the
switch is moved to another network segment, you will lose management access to the switch. In this case, you
can reboot the switch or submit a client request to restart DHCP service.
Web – If the address assigned by DHCP is no longer functioning, you will not be able to renew the
IP settings via the Web interface. You can only restart DHCP service via the Web interface if the
current address is still available.
CLI – Enter the Console#ip dhcp restart command to restart DHCP service:
