3.6 Using Auto Configuration
Follow the steps below to set up configurations on the Switch, so you can load an auto configuration file
automatically from a TFTP server when you reboot the Switch.
Note: You need to set up configurations on a DHCP server and TFTP server first to use auto
configuration.
Use this command to enable auto configuration on the Switch.
1
auto-config
sysname# config
sysname(config)# auto-config
Use this command to enable the DHCP mode for auto configuration.
2
auto-config dhcp
sysname# config
sysname(config)# auto-config dhcp
Use this command to configure the Switch as a DHCP client.
3
ip address default-management dhcp-bootp
sysname# config
sysname(config)# vlan 1
sysname(config-vlan)# ip address default-management dhcp-bootp
Use this command to enable DHCP option 60.
4
ip address default-management dhcp-bootp option-60
When you enable DHCP option 60, make sure you set up a Vendor Class Identifier. The Vendor Class
Identifier specifies the Zyxel switch that should receive the auto configuration file.
Skip this step if you are not enabling DHCP option 60.
sysname# config
sysname(config)# vlan 1
sysname(config-vlan)# ip address default-management dhcp-bootp option-60
Use this command to define a Vendor Class Identifier for DHCP option 60.
5
ip address default-management dhcp-bootp option-60 class-id <class-id>
In this example, we use "ZyxelCorp".
Skip this step if you don't need to define a Vendor Class Identifier.
sysname# config
sysname(config)# vlan 1
sysname(config-vlan)# ip address default-management dhcp-bootp option-60
class-id ZyxelCorp
