Enable Auto Script from the Remote Console for Use with TFTP or a
USB Stick
Use this feature to copy the same settings to each of your SX IIs.
To do this, a configuration script file with the SX II's settings is created.
Example Script
config
localport
config enable false
Script Result Example
config
Config > localport
Config > LocalPort > config enable false
Local port configuration successful.
Config > LocalPort >
Create the file and then do one or both of the following to distribute it to
the appliances -
•
Save the file to a TFTP server with the same name
DSX2_SERIAL.autoscript. The first time a new SX II boots up, it
contacts the DHCP server and retrieves the IP address of the
appliance, and the DHCP server sends the SX II the TFTP server IP
address.
Once contacted, the configuration file is sent from the TFTP server,
the configuration settings are applied to the appliance, and the
appliance reboots.
No manual intervention is required with this method.
Note that SX II must receive the TFTP server address from one of
these settings:

DHCP next-server (siaddr)

TFTP server address (option 66). This option takes precedence if
both are specified.
