Configuring Basic Network Information (Cli); Enabling The Dhcp Client On The Oob Port; Enabling The Dhcp Client On The Default Vlan - Dell Networking N4000 Series Configuration Manual

Configuring Basic Network Information (CLI)

This section provides information about the commands you use to configure
basic network information on the Dell Networking N2000, N3000, and N4000
series switches. For more information about these commands, see the
Networking N2000, N3000, and N4000 Series Switches CLI Reference Guide
at support.dell.com/manuals.

Enabling the DHCP Client on the OOB Port

NOTE:
N2000 switches do not have an out-of-band interface.
Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to enable
the DHCP client on the OOB port.
Command
configure
interface out-of-band
ip address dhcp
CTRL + Z
show ip interface out-of-
band

Enabling the DHCP Client on the Default VLAN

Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to enable
the DHCP client on the default VLAN, which is VLAN 1. As a best practice,
it is recommended that a separate VLAN other than one used for client traffic
be used for in-band management of the switch. In general, using VLAN 1, or
any other VLAN carrying client traffic, for in-band management introduces a
security vulnerability.
Command
configure
interface vlan 1
ip address dhcp
ipv6 address dhcp
