Functional Notes
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows interfaces to acquire a dynamically assigned IP
address from a configured DHCP server on the network. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) r equire
the use of DHCP when connecting to their service s. Using DHCP reduces the number of dedicated IP
addresses the ISP must obtain.
Usage Examples
The following example renews the IP address assigned (by DHCP) on the Ethernet interface (eth 0/1):
(config)#in t et h 0/ 1
(config-eth 0/1)#ip dhcp renew
