Command Reference Guide Frame Relay Sub-Interface Config Command Set
Functional Notes
DHCP allows interfaces to acquire a dynamically assigned IP address from a configured DHCP server on
the network. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) require the use of DHCP when connecting to their
services. Using DHCP reduces the number of dedicated IP addresses the ISP must obtain. Consult your
ISP to determine the proper values for the client-id and hostname fields.
Usage Examples
The following example enables DHCP operation on the virtual Frame Relay interface (labeled 1.16):
(config)#interface frame-relay 1.16
(config-fr 1.16)#ip address dhcp
