Set up Automatic Configuration for Dynamic IP

Perform the following procedure to enable and set up Automatic Configuration when you have a dynamic IP address for the TFTP server via DHCP.

The Configuration filename and the TFTP server IP address are contained in the DHCP response when the AP gets its IP address dynamically from the DHCP server. A Syslog server address is also contained in the DHCP response, allowing the AP to send Auto Configuration success and failure messages to a Syslog server.

NOTE:

The configuration filename and TFTP server IP address are configured only when the AP is configured for Static IP. If the AP is configured for Dynamic IP these parameters are not used and obtained from DHCP.

1.Click Configure > Management > AutoConfig. The Automatic Configuration Screen appears.

2.Check Enable Auto Configuration.

When the AP is Configured with Dynamic IP, the DHCP server should be configured with the TFTP Server IP address (Boot Server Host Name, option 66) and Configuration file (Bootfile Name, option 67) as follows:

3.Select DHCP Server > DHCP Option > Scope. The DHCP Options: Scope Screen appears.
