DHCP Enabled via User Interface
« on: November 02, 2010, 04:32:12 AM »
Hi Mark,

I want the option to switch from a fixed IP address to a DHCP obtained IP address and vice-versa at reset.

It is possible to disable/enable DHCP via a user interface such as a hyper-terminal?

Hi Kenneth

There is a command in the command line interface in the LAN menu [UART, TELNET or USB]:
set_dhcp",          "<enable/disable> DHCP"

This allows enabling or disabling the DHCP. If the setting is saved and the board reset it will then use either its IP address or the DHCP settings accordingly.

Regards

Mark
