Using DHCP to assign switch IP addresses
If your switch is already set up, and if the switch is running Fabric OS version 6.0 or later, you can
enable the use of DHCP to set your switch IP address. If you want DHCP to set your switch IP
address, you must have a DHCP server on the same subnet as your setup computer and the
switch, and it must be enabled before running the EZSwitchSetup wizard. You can enable DHCP by
taking the following steps.
1.
Open a Telnet window.
2.
Log in to the switch as a root or admin user, using the factory default IP address.
3.
Use the
ipaddrset
command to change the DHCP setting from Off to On, as in the following
example.
switch:admin> ipaddrset
Ethernet IP Address [192.168.74.102]:
Ethernet Subnetmask [255.255.255.0]:
Fibre Channel IP Address [220.220.220.2]:
Fibre Channel Subnetmask [255.255.0.0]:
Gateway IP Address [192.168.74.1]:
DHCP [Off]: on
