Oh. In that case, I don't like that idea so much.
Wouldn't it be much faster to copy the old (existing) to notepad, use the
command (something like) default interface e x/x, config dhcp client on
interface, make sure that dhcp works, and then copy the interface config
back from notepad?
No, reboot needed this way.
The idea of changing the config registers during the lab seems to be too
risky. Suppose a mistake is made at that point? It could take a while to
fix that, don't you think?
Thanks for the clarification, though.

Hi Tim,
I think that David meant to change config register to avoid startup-config
becoming running-config. So, you change the register, reload the router and
you have a clean situation while your old config is still in the
startup-config. After playing with an option that you wanted to test, just
change the register, reload and your old config is back (so you don't need
to make backup of your original config).
HTH,
Ivan

Hey David,
Thanks alot for your response.
Both of your ideas sound excellent so I'm gonna try them out and see which
one works best for me. .
But, I have to admit I don't know how to change the register to make the
router look like a client. Actually, I don't recall ever hearing of that
being done. I know how to change the register, for example, to do a
password recovery but can you explain how to make the router "appear" like a
client or point me to a link that explains that?
Also, when you say make the router look like a client, you mean a dhcp
client, right?
And, when the register is changed, how does the router behave as compared to
when just the interface is made a dhcp client?
Thanks again, Tim
