Use undo next-server to remove the server's IP address from the DHCP address pool.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies the IP address of a server.

Usage guidelines

Upon startup, the DHCP client obtains an IP address and the specified server IP address. Then it contacts the specified server, such as a TFTP server, to get other boot information.

If you use the next-server command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Specify a server's IP address 10.1.1.254 in DHCP address pool 0.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] dhcp server ip-pool 0
