The requested image file version (if any) is checked against the current version before any attempt
is made to load it. If the requested version is the same as the running version, no action is taken. If
the image file version (embedded in the file header) does not match the expected version, no
further action is taken. If the version has not been specified, the image file header is compared to
the local version. If they are the same, no action is taken.
NOTE
Once the system has been operating for ten minutes, Auto Install is disabled, though it may still be
reconfigured. This is to prevent the system from attempting to re-install each time a DHCP lease is
renewed.
Configuring Auto Install via the CLI
There are three compulsory and four optional configuration parameters.
The compulsory parameters are:
•
•
•
Optional (only for the static case):
•
•
•
•
To set default to no, and the URLs and the version default to "" (blank):
RF Switch(config)#show autoinstall
feature
config
cluster cfg
image
expected image version
Enables are set using the autoinstall <feature> command:
RF Switch>en
RF Switch#conf t
RF Switch(config)#autoinstall image
RF Switch(config)#autoinstall config
RF Switch(config)#autoinstall cluster-config
After this configuration update, any switch reboot with DHCP enabled on the RON port will trigger
an auto install, provided the DHCP Server is configured with appropriate options.
The "enables" are cleared using the no autoinstall <feature>
URLs and the version string are stored in the configuration file as text and can be cleared using an
empty pair of double quotes to denote the blank string. In the following example, define the three
URLs and the expected version of the image file, then enable all three features for the auto install.
RF Switch(config)#autoinstall config url
ftp://ftp:ftp@192.9.200.1/RFSwitch/config
RF Switch(config)#autoinstall cluster-config url
