Using the DHCP Client to Configure the
Appliance
You can use the built-in Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client
to configure the system instead of using a console connection. This feature
allows a properly configured DHCP server to provide your IP system with:
A host name
An IP address
A default route
You can then use Voyager to reconfigure any of these settings. Once you do
so, Voyager keeps the modified settings. (DHCP is not used if there is existing
configuration information.)
The DHCP server automatically sets the administrative password of the IP
system to password.

Configuring the DHCP Server

You must first configure a DHCP server with (at a minimum):
Mappings for a host name for the IP system
Serial number of the system, or the static MAC address of a NIC installed
in the system
The minimum IP address lease required is one year.
