If the bootp or dhcp option is saved to the startup-config file (step 6), then the
ECN330-switch will start broadcasting service requests as soon as it is powered
on.
To automatically configure the ECN330-switch by communicating with BOOTP
or DHCP address allocation servers on the network, complete the following
steps:
1. At the global configuration mode prompt, type interface vlan
<vlan-id> to access the interface-configuration mode. The range for
VLAN IDs is 1-4094 for ECN330 mode, and 1 or 246 for ECN330-switch
mode. To dynamically configure an address for VLAN 246, type interface
vlan 246 and press <Enter>.
2. At the interface-configuration mode prompt, use one of the following
commands:
• To obtain IP settings through DHCP, type ip address dhcp and press
<Enter>.
• To obtain IP settings through BOOTP, type ip address bootp and
press <Enter>.
3. Type exit to return to the global configuration mode. Press <Enter>.
4. Type ip dhcp restart client to begin broadcasting service requests.
Press <Enter>.
5. Wait a few minutes, and then check the IP configuration settings by typing
the show ip interface command. Press <Enter>.
6. Save the configuration changes by typing copy running-config
startup-config. Type the startup file name when prompted and press
<Enter>.
