ENABLE IP REMOTEASSIGN

Syntax

enable ip remoteassign

Parameters

None.

Description

This command activates the DHCP and BOOTP client software on the
switch. This command is equivalent to “ENABLE DHCPBOOTP” on page
38. The default setting for the DHCP
and BOOTP client software is
disabled.

Note

When you activate BOOTP/DHCP, the switch immediately begins to
query the network for a BOOTP or DHCP server. The switch
continues to query the network for its IP configuration until it
receives a response.

Any static IP address, subnet mask, or gateway address assigned to
the switch is deleted from the System Configuration menu and
replaced with the value the switch receives from the BOOTP or
DHCP server. If you later disable BOOTP and DHCP, these values are
returned to their default settings.

To disable DHCP and BOOTP, refer to “DISABLE DHCPBOOTP” on page 35
or “DISABLE IP REMOTEASSIGN” on page 36.

Note

You cannot manually assign an IP address or subnet mask to a
switch once the DHCP and BOOTP client software has been
activated.

Example

The following command activates the DHCP and BOOTP client software
on the switch:

enable ip remoteassign
