Automatic configuration update with DHCP Option 66
HP switches are initially booted up with the factory-shipped configuration file. This feature provides
a way to automatically download a different configuration file from a TFTP server using DHCP
Option 66. The prerequisites for this to function correctly are:
• One or more DHCP servers with Option 66 are enabled
• One or more TFTP servers has the desired configuration file
CAUTION: This feature must use configuration files generated on the switch to function correctly.
If you use configuration files that were not generated on the switch, and then enable this feature,
the switch may reboot continuously.
CLI command
The command to enable the configuration update using Option 66 is:
Syntax:
[no]dhcp config-file-update
Enables configuration file update using Option 66.
Default: Enabled
