received, the SNMP Management Module will reboot so that the new IP address will
take effect. Refer to the Main Configuration About Serial Port Configuration for more
information about Enabling/Disabling DHCP. When there is no DHCP server on the
network, use iConfig or serial configuration to manually set the IP addresses. When
DHCP is enabled, the IP address (default 10.10.10.10 or user configured) is saved.
When DHCP is disabled, the saved IP address will be reinstated and the device will
reboot. DHCP servers give out lease times: devices renew their leases based on the
administrator-specified time. If a device cannot renew its lease, and the lease
expires, the device will be given the IP address 10.10.10.10 and will reboot.
