Ipv4Settings

Ipv4Settings contains the settings for the IPv4 protocol.

Note

The settings in Interface must be added in the following order: Ipv4Settings, Identifier, UnicastIpAddresses, and then Routes. After saving your Unattend file in Windows SIM, verify in the XML file that the output is shown in the correct order, as shown in the XML example below.

Child Elements

Setting	Description
DhcpEnabled	Specifies whether the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled for the IPv4 protocol.
