Figure 7: Bootstrap Process - System Initialization - Part Ii-C - Alcatel-Lucent 7210 SAS M Configuration Manual

When the runtime image is successfully downloaded, control is passed from the bootstrap image.
The runtime image attempts to load the configurations from the downloaded configuration file. If
no configuration file location is present in the BOF file, then the system is loaded with default
configuration. Also during the auto-init, if the configuration file or image file download fails from
the network, then the system is the auto-init procedure.
