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) require the use of DHCP when connecting to their services. Using DHCP reduces the number of dedicated IP addresses the ISP must obtain.

Usage Examples

The following example releases the IP address assigned (by DHCP) on the Ethernet interface (eth 0/1):

(config)#int eth 0/1 (config-eth 0/1)#ip dhcp release
