19.2 Configuring DHCP on Ethernet Interface
DHCP enabled on the Ethernet interface is the default configuration for the serial
devices. The Ethernet interface must be in client mode for this setting to be used.
The Airborne Device does not support the ability to enable DHCP on the WLAN
and Ethernet interfaces simultaneously (when in client mode). Only one may
have DHCP enabled at a time. The other interface must be configured to use a
static IP address.
