dhcp-client
Configures the DHCP client on a VLAN, to allow the VLAN to obtain its
IP interface from a DHCP server.
Syntax — set interface vlan-id ip dhcp-client {enable | disable}
 vlan-id — VLAN name or number.
 enable — Enables the DHCP client on the VLAN.
 disable — Disables the DHCP client on the VLAN.
Defaults — The DHCP client is enabled by default on an unconfigured
WXR100 when the Fn switch is pressed and held during power on.
The DHCP client is disabled by default on all other switch models, and is
disabled on an WXR100 if the switch is already configured or the Fn
switch is not pressed and held during power on.
Access — Enabled.
History —Introduced in MSS Version 4.0.
Usage — You can enable the DHCP client on one VLAN only. You can
configure the DHCP client on more than one VLAN, but the client can be
active on only one VLAN.
MSS also has a configurable DHCP server. (See set interface
dhcp-server on page 145.) You can configure a DHCP client and DHCP
server on the same VLAN, but only the client or the server can be
enabled. The DHCP client and DHCP server cannot both be enabled on
the same VLAN at the same time.
