Using the CLI 47
3
Type the following to verify the IP address:
When configuring/receiving IP addresses through DHCP, the configuration
received from these servers includes the IP address and may include the
subnet mask and default gateway.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to delete the device configuration to retrieve an IP
address from the DHCP server.
NOTE: When copying configuration files, avoid using a configuration file that
contains an instruction to enable DHCP on an interface that connects to the same
DHCP server, or to one with an identical configuration. In this instance, the device
retrieves the new configuration file and boots from it. The device then enables
DHCP, as instructed in the new configuration file, and the DHCP instructs it to reload
the same file.
