enable autoconfig
Purpose
Used to activate the auto configuration function for the Switch. This
will load a previously saved configuration file for current use.
Syntax
enable autoconfig
Description
When autoconfig is enabled on the Switch, the DHCP reply will
contain a configuration file and path name. It will then request the
file from the TFTP server specified in the reply. When autoconfig is
enabled, the ipif settings will automatically become DHCP client.
Parameters
None.
Restrictions
When autoconfig is enabled, the Switch becomes a DHCP client
automatically (same as: config ipif System dhcp). The DHCP server
must have the TFTP server IP address and configuration file name,
and be configured to deliver this information in the data field of the
DHCP reply packet. The TFTP server must be running and have
the requested configuration file in its base directory when the
request is received from the Switch. Consult the DHCP server and
TFTP server software instructions for information on loading a boot
file or configuration file.
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To enable auto configuration on the Switch:
DES-3200-28:4#enable autoconfig
Command: enable autoconfig
Success.
