15-6 Configuring and Managing SLIP Ports
How a Port Automatically Obtains the SLIP Host Address
If you configure a port for SLIP communication and do not assign a host address, the
access server does the following:
1
Reads the source address from the attached host’s first output IP packet.
2
Automatically assigns this address to the port if it is valid.
The access server clears this address when the SLIP host logs out from the port.
