Configuring DHCP

Observing Syntax and Conventions

The CLI command syntax and conventions use the notation described in the following table.

DHCP Commands

The following commands configure the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on the 
XSR.

bootfile

This command sets the name of the default boot image for a DHCP client. Depending on the client 
configuration inheritance, the command should be used from the proper mode. If it is specified 
from multiple modes, an override mechanism chooses the innermost config value, with host being 
innermost, then client‐class and pool being the most general.
