Basic Configuration 3

Using DHCP/BOOTP

If your network provides DHCP/BOOTP services, you can configure the stack to be dynamically configured by these services.

Web – Click IP, General, Routing Interface. Specify the VLAN to which the management station is attached, set the IP Address Mode to DHCP or BOOTP. Click Apply to save your changes. Then click Restart DHCP to immediately request a new address. Note that the stack will also broadcast a request for IP configuration settings on each power reset.

Figure 3-9 IP Interface Configuration - DHCP

Note: If you lose your management connection, make a console connection to the Master unit and enter “show ip interface” to determine the new stack address.

CLI – Specify the management interface, and set the IP address mode to DHCP or BOOTP, and then enter the “ip dhcp restart client” command.
