24.1 Commands for DHCP Server Configuration
24.1.1 bootfile
Command:
bootfile <filename>
no bootfile
Function:
Sets the file name for DHCP client to import on boot up; the “no bootfile “command deletes this
setting.
Parameters:
<filename> is the name of the file to be imported, up to 255 characters are allowed.
Command Mode:
DHCP Address Pool Mode
Usage Guide:
Specify the name of the file to be imported for the client. This is usually used for diskless
workstations that need to download a configuration file from the server on boot up. This command is
together with the “next sever”.
Example:
The path and filename for the file to be imported is “c:\temp\nos.img”
Switch(dhcp-1-config)#bootfile c:\temp\nos.img
Related Command:
next-server
24.1.2 clear ip dhcp binding
Command:
clear ip dhcp binding {<address> | all}
Function:
Deletes the specified IP address-hardware address binding record or all IP address-hardware
address binding records.
Parameters:
<address> is the IP address that has a binding record in decimal format. all refers to all IP
addresses that have a binding record.
Command mode:
Admin Mode.
Usage Guide:
“show ip dhcp binding” command can be used to view binding information for IP addresses and
corresponding DHCP client hardware addresses. If the DHCP server is informed that a DHCP client
is not using the assigned IP address for some reason before the lease period expires, the DHCP
server would not remove the binding information automatically. The system administrator can use
this command to delete that IP address-client hardware address binding manually, if “all” is
specified, then all auto binding records will be deleted, thus all addresses in the DHCP address pool
