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 Ethernet interface 0/1:
(config)#interface ethernet 0/1
(config-eth 0/1)#ip address dhcp
The following example enables DHCP operation on the Ethernet interface 0/1 utilizing host name adtran
and does not allow obtaining a default route, domain name, or name servers. It also sets the administrative
distance as 5:
(config)#interface ethernet 0/1
(config-eth 0/1)#ip address dhcp hostname "adtran" no-default-route no-domain-name
no-nameservers 5
