History
Usage
Normally, Distributed MPs use DHCP to obtain IP address information. In some
installations, DHCP may not be available. In this case, you can assign static IP address
information to the MP, including the MP IP address and netmask, and default gateway.
If the manually assigned IP information is incorrect, the MP uses DHCP to obtain an IP address.
Examples The following command configures MP 1 to use IP address 172.16.0.42 with a 24-bit
netmask, and use 172.16.0.20 as its default gateway:
MX# set ap 1 boot-configuration ip 172.16.0.42 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 172.16.0.20
success: change accepted.
