Autoinstallation is the automatic configuration of a device over the network from a
pre-existing configuration file that you create and store on a configuration server—typically
a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server. You can use autoinstallation to automatically
configure new devices and to deploy multiple devices from a central location in the
network.
Autoinstallation takes place automatically when you connect an Ethernet port on a new
switch to the network and power on the switch. You can also explicitly enable
autoinstallation on Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches in your network to
implement autoinstallation when they are powered on. To configure autointallation, you
specify a configuration server, an autoinstallation interface, and a protocol for IP address
acquisition.
