DHCP Client Configuration

This procedures in this section explain how to activate and deactivate the

DHCP client on the AT-GS950/16 switch. See the following sections:

 "Activate or Deactivate DCHP for IPv4"

 “Activate or Deactivate DCHP for IPv6” on page 54

Activate or

Deactivate DCHP

for IPv4

When the client is activated, the switch obtains its IP configuration

including an IP address and subnet mask from a DHCP server on your

network. Before performing the procedure, note the following:

 By default, the DHCP client is disabled on the switch.

 The DHCP client supports DHCP Auto Configuration

Settings or BOOTP. See “DHCP Auto Configuration”

on page 56 for more information.

 After you enable DHCP, your current management

session ends because a different IP address is

assigned to the switch by the DHCP server. The new

IP address can be discovered using the ATI Discovery

Tool. See “DHCP and ATI Web Discovery Tool” on

page 52 for more information.

To activate or deactivate the DHCP client on the switch for IPv4, perform

the following procedure:

1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System

folder.

The System folder expands.

2. From the System folder, select IPv4 Setup.

The IPv4 Setup Page is shown in Figure 6 on page 32.

3. From the pull-down menu next to the System IP Mode field, select

DHCP.

4. Click Apply.

When the DHCP client is selected, the web server connection to the

switch is lost because a different IP address is assigned to the switch

by the DHCP server.

Caution

Selecting DHCP may end your current management session.
