Nearest-Edge Mode Operation
Access Switch
When used in conjunction with the Automatic Remote Configuraton feature no configuration is necessary
on the Access OmniSwitches. Newly connected switches without a boot.cfg file receive the Nearest-Edge
LLDP PDUs, discover the Management VLAN, tag the port with that VLAN ID, and create a DHCP client
interface on the Managment VLAN. This auto-configuration allows the DHCP client interface on the
OmniSwitch to receive an IP address in the proper IP subnet.
