Change DHCP Client

If the network is equipped with a DHCP server, enable the DHCP client of the switch, for it to receive automatically an IP address from the DHCP server.

If DHCP is enabled, the settings for static IP address, static subnet mask, and the static default gateway, are not changeable anymore.
The previous assigned IP address will be used if there is no DHCP server available.

Requirement: Connection to the web interface.

  1. Click Edit General Settings.
  2. Click under DHCP client enabled or disabled.
  3. Click Apply settings and stay where you are or Apply settings and leave edit.

The DHCP client is enabled or disabled. The DHCP settings are saved in the startup configuration.
