DHCP response options
Each valid DHCP response contains options that provide the TCP/IP settings that the
Rack PDU needs to operate on a network, and other information that affects the
operation of the Rack PDU.
DHCP
&
BOOTP The default setting. The Rack PDU tries to obtain its TCP/IP settings from a BOOTP
server first, and then, if it cannot discover a BOOTP server, from a DHCP server. If it
obtains its TCP/IP settings from either server, it switches this setting to
BOOTP or
DHCP , depending on the type of server that supplied the TCP/IP settings to the Rack
PDU.
Click Next>> to configure the same settings that are on the BOOTP Configuration
and DHCP Configuration pages 1 and to specify that the DHCP and BOOTP setting
be retained after either type of server provides the TCP/IP values.
Setting Description

changed:

Vendor Class : DELL
