Usage Guidelines The interface can be the direct interface connected towards the ANCP server (if only one) or a loopback
interface if several interfaces are available for connecting to the server and proper routing is set. (An IP
address must be configured on this interface and it should not be in shutdown state.) Along with the ancp
mode client command, the ancp client server command is required in order to activate the ANCP client.
Once you enter this command, the ANCP client tries to connect to the remote server.
Examples This example shows how to indicate to the ANCP client the IP address of the ANCP server it needs to
connect to:
Switch# ancp client server 10.1.2.31 interface FastEthernet 2/1
