Appendix F: Enabling DHCP on the VT5900-SA
Use the following steps to save the current settings and reboot the system:
1. Select X) Return to previous menu
2. Select A) Save Configuration
3. Select X) Return to previous menu
4. Select 4) Reboot
After the VT5900-SA finishes rebooting, the Main Menu will appear. DHCP status can be verified
from the Ethernet Configuration Menu where DHCP Configuration is indicated as “Enabled” if
DHCP has been successfully activated. Note that the IP Address will also appear different than the
former non-DHCP IP Address.
Note: To use the DHCP feature, a DHCP server must be operational on the Ethernet network
used by the VT5900-SA. If the DHCP feature is used when there is no DHCP server, the standard
for DHCP requires that the VT5900-SA wait three minutes for a response from a DHCP server
before timing out. During this period, the VT5900-SA menus and functions will not be
accessible.
