Unpacking And Mounting The Srx345 - Juniper SRX345 Hardware Manual

If you are setting up many devices, autoinstallation can help automate the configuration process by
loading configuration files onto new or existing devices automatically over the network. You can use
either the J-Web interface or the CLI to configure a device for autoinstallation.
For the autoinstallation process to work, you must store one or more host-specific or default
configuration files on a configuration server in the network and have a service available—typically
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)—to assign an IP address to the services gateway.
Autoinstallation takes place automatically when you connect an Ethernet port on a new services
gateway to the network and power on the device. To simplify the process, you can explicitly enable
autoinstallation on a device and specify a configuration server, an autoinstallation interface, and a
protocol for IP address acquisition.
NOTE: If the USB autoinstallation feature is enabled (the default configuration), removal of a USB
storage device immediately after insertion is not supported.
After you insert a USB storage device, Junos OS scans the device to check whether it contains
the USB autoinstallation file. This process might take up to 50 seconds to complete depending
on the quality of the USB storage device and the number and size of the files in the device.
Removing the USB storage device while this process is running might cause the services gateway
to reboot, the USB port to stop working, and data loss on the USB. We recommend that after
inserting a USB storage device, you wait for at least 60 seconds before removing it.
By issuing the set system autoinstallation usb disable command (which disables the USB
autoinstallation feature) before you insert the USB device, you can reduce the waiting interval
between insertion and removal of a USB storage device from 60 seconds to 20 seconds.
