IP COMMANDS

You can start broadcasting BOOTP or DHCP requests by entering an ip dhcp restart command, or by rebooting the switch.

Note: Only one VLAN interface can be assigned an IP address (the default is VLAN 1.) This defines the management VLAN, the only VLAN through which you can gain management access to the switch. If you assign an IP address to any other VLAN, the new IP address overrides the original IP address and this becomes the new management VLAN.

Example

In the following example, the device is assigned an address in VLAN 1.

Console(config)#interface vlan 1

Console(config-if)#ip address 10.1.0.1 255.255.255.0

Console(config-if)#

Command Usage

DHCP requires the server to reassign the client’s last address if available.

If the BOOTP or DHCP server has been moved to a different domain, the network portion of the address provided to the client will be based on this new domain.
