After the conguration le is successfully downloaded, the config—scr-download parameter is
automatically disabled. You can enable it again using the
reload-type command.
Set the Auto Conguration mode (BMP or Normal reload) using the reload-type command. Next, enter

When a switch reloads in BMP mode, all ports, including the management port, are automatically congured
as Layer 3 physical ports. The switch runs DHCP client on all interfaces. You can recongure the default
startup conguration and DHCP timeout values.
