Local USB port

You can use the local USB port to attach a USB flash drive that contains the OS installation
files. There are several methods to create a bootable flash drive.
For VMware, you can use the embedded hypervisor key, which is preinstalled with ESXi. You
do not need to install VMware. For more information about the embedded hypervisor key, see
2.9.1, "VMware ESXi" on page 50.
