Configuration procedure

The following describes only the configuration on Switch B serving as a client.

# Configure VLAN-interface 1 to dynamically obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.

<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] interface vlan-interface 1
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface1] ip address bootp-alloc

# Use the display bootp client command to view the IP address assigned to the BOOTP client.

To make the BOOTP client obtain an IP address from the DHCP server, you must perform additional configurations on the DHCP server. For more information, see "Configuring DHCP server."
