Table 6-7. Default Settings for the DHCP Client
Before you enable the DHCP client, you must decide whether or not you want
to configure the settings listed in Table 6-7, and you must then include the
settings in the same command that you enter to enable the DHCP client. After
you enable the DHCP client, it immediately begins to search for a DHCP server
and negotiate a lease. You cannot impose settings on that lease after it is
established.
Accepting the Default Settings . If you want to use default DHCP settings
for the Frame Relay subinterface, you can simply enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1.16)# ip address dhcp
The DHCP client on the Frame Relay subinterface will immediately begin to
send DHCP discovery message to find a DHCP server. When a DHCP server
responds, the client will negotiate an IP address.
The DHCP client will send DHCP discovery messages whether or not the
Frame Relay subinterface is activated or a valid connection has been estab-
lished. It will continue to send DHCP discovery messages until a DHCP server
responds.
You should ensure that the DHCP client receives an IP address so that these
discovery messages do not consume router resources or bandwidth on your
Frame Relay link. To determine whether the Frame Relay subinterface has
been assigned an IP address, enter the following command from the enable
mode context:
ProCurve# show interface frame-relay <number.subinterface number>
