server. Use the no form to restore the default IP address.

Command Usage
• You must assign an IP address to this device to gain management access
over the network or to connect the wireless bridge to existing IP subnets.
You can manually configure a specific IP address using the ip address
command, or direct the device to obtain an address from a DHCP server
using this command.
• When you use this command, the wireless bridge will begin broadcasting
DHCP client requests. The current IP address (i.e., default or manually
configured address) will continue to be effective until a DHCP reply is
received. Requests will be broadcast periodically by this device in an effort
to learn its IP address. (DHCP values can include the IP address, subnet
mask, and default gateway.)
