Boot Methods

There are three modes that you can boot your switch in ---

FLASH Boot – Boots from a memory chip that software images can be stored, booted, and rewritten as necessary. Flash memory resides in a chip and holds its content without power.

BootP - Boots your system from a BootP (Bootstrap Protocol) server. BootP is a TCP/IP protocol used by a diskless workstation or network computer to obtain its IP address and other network information such as server address and default gateway.

DHCP Boot – Boots your system from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. DHCP servers can automatically assign IP addresses to client stations logging onto a TCP/IP network.

The following are the initial factory values. You can change the information by entering new information. (For example, you can change the MIL-SM801XX’s IP address by directly typing in new IP address.) Then click Apply after entering the information.
