You must perform the initial configuration of a QFX10000 modular switch through the
console port using the command-line interface (CLI) or through Zero Touch Provisioning
(ZTP). On QFX10002 fixed-chassis models, in addition to using the CLI, you may also
use ZTP. In order to provision the QFX10002 using ZTP, you must have access to a
Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server and a File Transfer Protocol (anonymous
FTP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), or Trivial File Transfer Potocol (TFTP) server
on which the software image and configuration files are stored. For more information
about using ZTP for provisioning the device, see Zero Touch Provisioning.
The following procedure sets up the QFX10000 using the command-line interface (CLI).
Before you begin connecting and configuring the switch, set the following parameter
values on the console server or PC:
Baud Rate—9600
Flow Control—None
Data—8
Parity—None
Stop Bits—1
DCD State—Disregard
