Chen,

If the router fails to get a DHCP address from the LAN interface, it will
then use an available serial interface.

Is the other router configured to be a DHCP server?

And, of course, the Ethernet interface is up.

# The router will also send out Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)
and Serial Line Address Resolution Protocol (SLARP) requests. AutoInstall
will use the first available method (DHCP, BOOTP, RARP, or SLARP) for
configuration. If all LAN interface configuration options fail, AutoInstall
will attempt to configure an available serial interface using SLARP. Though
DHCP is the preferred method for AutoInstall over LAN interfaces, these
other options remain enabled to ensure backward compatibility with older
network topologies.
