The do command allows you to enter enable mode commands from any
context (except the basic mode context).
Configuring a Client Identifier. By default, the Secure Router OS
populates the client identifier with the media type and the interface's media
access control (MAC) address. You can specify that the DHCP client uses the
MAC address of an Ethernet port, or you can configure a customized client
identifier.
To configure a client identifier when you enable the DHCP client, enter:
Syntax: ip address dhcp client-id [ethernet 0/<port> | HH:HH:HH:HH:HH:HH:HH]
In the same command in which you configure the client identifier, you can
also configure a hostname, as explained in the next section.
Configuring a Hostname. The Secure Router OS uses the router's host-
name as the ATM subinterface's default DHCP client hostname. If you want to
override this name when you enable the DHCP client, enter the following
command:
Syntax: ip address dhcp hostname <word>
For example, you might want to specify that the hostname is RouterB. In this
case, you would enter:
ProCurve(config-atm 1.1)# ip address dhcp hostname RouterB
You can also configure a client identifier at the same time as the hostname, as
shown below.
ProCurve(config-atm 1.1)# ip address dhcp client-id ethernet 0/1 hostname RouterB
If you enter this command, the DHCP client will use the MAC address of the
Ethernet 0/1 interface as its client identifier. The DHCP client will also use the
hostname RouterB.
Alternatively, you can specify the hostname and configure the client to ignore
the settings received from the DHCP server. These commands are described
in the following sections.
