the no form to restore the default IP address.

Command Usage
• You must assign an IP address to this device to gain management access over the network or to
connect the AP to existing IP subnets. You can manually configure a specific IP address using
the ip address command, or direct the device to obtain an address from a DHCP server using
this command.
• When you use this command, the AP will begin broadcasting DHCP client requests. The current
IP address (i.e., default or manually configured address) will continue to be effective until a DHCP
reply is received. Requests will be broadcast periodically by this device in an effort to learn its IP
address. (DHCP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.)
