11.2.5.5 set rad
Use this command to enable or disable RAD (Runtime Address Discovery) protocol. The Matrix
Series device uses BOOTP/DHCP to obtain an IP address if one hasn’t been configured. RAD can
also be used to retrieve a text configuration file from the network.
set rad {enable | disable}
Syntax Description
Command Defaults
None.
Command Type
Switch command.
Command Mode
Read-Write.
Example
This example shows how to disable RAD:
NOTES: In order for RAD to retrieve a text configuration file, the file must be specified
in the BootP tab.
RAD on DFE devices will only accept an address from a DHCP or BootP server if the
lease time for the address is set to infinity (unlimited). This will prevent the DFE from
switching addresses when a lease time expires.
enable | disable Enables or disables RAD.
Matrix(rw)->set rad disable
