Telecom Routers Switches Interview Question:

What is the IP address of the switch?

Submitted by: Administrator

The switch can obtain its IP configuration automatically
using one of the following protocols:

?Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)

?Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

?Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)

The switch makes BOOTP, DHCP, and RARP requests only if the
sc0 interface IP address is set to 0.0.0.0 when the switch
boots up. This address is the default for a new switch or a
switch whose configuration file has been cleared using the
clear config all command. BOOTP, DHCP, and RARP requests
are only broadcast out the sc0 interface.
