DHCP Auto-Provisioning
DHCP auto-provisioning allows Layer 2 and Layer 3 devices to automatically obtain leased IP addresses through a DHCP server, negotiate address lease renewal, and obtain flash image and configuration files. The DHCP client and auto-provisioning are enabled by default on all DHCP client-eligible ports. Auto-provisioning allows clients to boot up with the latest image and configuration without manual intervention. Refer to DHCP server for details on DHCP server configuration and options.
Note: DHCP auto-provisioning is platform independent and does not differ in behavior or
configuration across platforms.
