Cisco DHCP (Management Console, obsolete)

Adding a Cisco DHCP server

When adding a Cisco DHCP server, the following dialog box displays:

Type the User name and Password that should be used to access the server. This is the user name and password that is used when normally accessing the Cisco device from the command line prompt. If the server requires a separate password to enter privilege level 15, enter the required password in the Enable Password field. If you select the Connect using Secure Shell (SSHv2) checkbox, a secure connection will be used to access the server. If this checkbox is unchecked, the server will be accessed through a telnet connection.
