5.3.2 Setting up a DHCP Server

To work with an HN4000 switch's DHCP client, a DHCP server must be configured to recog‐
nize the HN4000 switch's MAC address and provide the switch with a reserved IP address
lease.
The general steps for setting up a DHCP server (using a Microsoft Windows DHCP server as
an example) are to:
Step 1. Determine the HN4000 switch's 12‐hexadecimal character MAC address. Use the
DHCP server's management software to associate the HN4000 switch's MAC address
with a leased IP address. Figure
