Using Bootp
In its default configuration, the switch is configured to enable Bootp opera- tion. However, if an IP address has previously been configured or if the IP Config parameter has been set to Disabled, then you will need to use this procedure to reconfigure the parameter to enable Bootp operation.
This procedure assumes that a Bootp database record has already been entered into an appropriate Bootp server, and that the necessary network connections are in place. For samples of Bootp server table entries, see “Bootp Database Entries” later in this chapter.
To configure the switch for Bootp:
1.In the Main Menu, select Configuration .
2.In the Configuration screen select Internet (IP) Service.
3.Press [E] (for Edit mode), then use [v] to move the cursor to the IP Config parameter field.
4.Use the Space bar to select the Use Bootp option for the IP Config parameter. (This disables access to the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway parameters.)
5.Press [Enter] to exit from edit mode, then press [S] to save the configuration change.
