Table 3-3 IP addressing
Service name Description
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) For automatic IPv4 and IPv6 address assignment. The DHCP server
provides the product with an IP address. Generally, no user
intervention is required for the product to obtain an IP address from
a DHCP server.
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) For automatic IP address assignment. The BOOTP server provides
the product with an IP address. Requires the administrator to input
a product's MAC hardware address on the BOOTP server for the
product to obtain an IP address from that server.
Auto IP For automatic IP address assignment. If neither a DHCP server nor
a BOOTP server is present, the product uses this service to generate
a unique IP address.

manually assign a static IP address.
