To retrieve an IP address from a BOOTP server:
1
Select and connect any port to a BOOTP server or subnet containing such
a server.
2
At the system prompt, enter the
delete startup configuration
command to
delete the Startup Configuration from flash.
The device reboots with no configuration and in 60 seconds starts sending
BOOTP requests. The device receives the IP address automatically.
NOTE: When the device reboot begins, any input at the ASCII terminal or keyboard
automatically cancels the BOOTP process before completion and the device does
not receive an IP address from the BOOTP server.
The following example illustrates the process:
To display the IP address, enter the show ip interface command.
The device is now configured with an IP address.
console> enable
console# delete startup-config
Startup file was deleted
console# reload
