Stack Zero-Touch Provisioning - Arris Ruckus ICX 7850 Series Configuration Manual

NOTE
Unit replacement cannot be performed when stack zero-touch provisioning is enabled. Stack zero-touch provisioning is
a superset of unit replacement and can handle single or multiple unit replacements.
NOTE
If the unit replacement process cannot handle particular cases due to ambiguity, Ruckus recommends using stack
interactive-setup.
Capability
Replace multiple stack units simultaneously
Handle any setup
Replace a unit when one provisional configuration matches the
replacement
Replace a unit when multiple provisional configurations match
the replacement
Replace a unit when no provisional configuration matches the
replacement
Refer to Stack unit replacement

Stack zero-touch provisioning

Stack zero-touch provisioning is a subset of the stack interactive-setup utility without any user interaction. Stack zero-touch
provisioning can detect new links between existing units and can discover new clean units (without startup-config flash), but it
cannot change existing unit IDs. Stack zero-touch provisioning is similar to running stack interactive-setup option 2 and accepting
all recommended values.
Stack zero-touch provisioning is enabled by entering stack zero-touch-enable in global configuration mode. It is triggered every
three minutes in background.
Ruckus recommends that you make all physical connections and then configure stack zero-touch-enable. Wait for a few
minutes for zero-touch provisioning to trigger and discover new units or new links.
NOTE
When enabled, stack zero-touch provisioning is triggered every three minutes; however, if a member is in the process of
joining or has joined the stack within the last 90 seconds, discovery is postponed for 30 seconds to allow a minimum
pause of 90 seconds after the last join.
After all new units join and all new links appear in show running-config command output, it is better to disable stack zero-touch
provisioning using the no stack zero-touch-enable command. Leaving stack zero-touch provisioning enabled is harmless;
however, the utility sends probes in background every three minutes, which wastes resources if there are no more units or links
to discover. (In contrast, stack interactive-setup immediately sends out probes when you run it.)
1
Unit connection must be sequential, for example, 2-4-5-7-8, or 9-7-5-4.
2
The assigned ID may be wrong, due to ambiguity.
