BOOTP & DHCP configuration
The Boot Mode Setting, a TCP/IP option in the Automatic Transfer Switch’s Network menu, identifies how the TCP/IP settings will be defined. The possible settings are Manual, DHCP only, BOOTP only, and DHCP & BOOTP (the default setting).
The DHCP & BOOTP setting assumes that a properly configured DHCP or BOOTP server is available to provide TCP/IP settings to Automatic Transfer Switches.
Note
If these servers are unavailable, see:
•“Device IP Configuration Wizard” on this page.
•“Local access to the control console” on page 10.
•“Remote access to the control console” on page 15.
With Boot Mode set to DHCP & BOOTP, the Automatic Transfer Switch attempts to discover a properly configured server. It first searches for a BOOTP server, then a DHCP server, and repeats this pattern until it discovers a BOOTP or DHCP server.
For more information, see “BOOTP” on page 9 or “DHCP” on page 9.
