Note
Use only IP parameters that have been specified or approved by your
network administrator.
The network interface card does not send DHCP requests when
DHCP is disabled. If there is no IP address assigned to the network
interface card or if
IP Address in NVRAM is turned off, the network
interface card sends a BOOTP request.
A DHCP request is sent when the network interface card is reset or
powered up (while DHCP is enabled and no IP address assigned to
the network interface card or if
IP Address in NVRAM is turned off).
When DHCP is enabled, an IP address is assigned to the network in-
terface card, and
IP Address in NVRAM is turned on, the network in-
terface card uses the IP address stored in NVRAM. In this case, the
network interface card does not send a DHCP request.
In a DHCP environment, it is necessary to specify an unlimited lease
period for the IP address assigned to the network interface card or the
IP address must be reset a fixed address within a range that is not
leased.
