Precedence of the methods
Most of the parameters are configurable through multiple methods. If you configure a parameter
through more than one method, the device applies the settings of the method that has a higher
precedence. For the parameters that are not backed up through PPM, the non-default value has the
highest precedence. The following list shows the precedence of the methods in the highest to lowest
order:
1. Settings app on the device. There is an exception of DHCP getting a higher precedence
when:
• IP address is set through DHCP.
• USE_DHCP parameter is set to 1 to assign a higher priority to DHCP.
