ipAddressConfigMs group).
2. Set this variable to either static or dhcp (vendor/site specific option).
3. Restart the Mediatrix 4100 so that the changes may take effect.
Configuration File Fetching
The ipAddressConfigFileFetching group provides the configuration necessary to contact the configuration file
server when fetching a configuration file.
To select the configuration file fetching server configuration source:

ipAddressConfigFileFetching group).
2. Set this variable to either static or dhcp (vendor/site specific option).
