Autoinstall Configuration Fields
Field
Description
Admin Mode
The current administrative mode of the AutoInstall feature:
•
Start
AutoInstall is enabled, and the feature will attempt to automatically configure the device
during the next boot cycle.
•
Stop
AutoInstall is disabled. The automatic process will begin only if no configuration file is
located during the next boot cycle.
Persistent Mode
If this option is selected, the settings you configure on this page are automatically saved to persistent
memory in the startup-config file when you apply the changes. If this option is cleared, the device
treats these settings like any other applied changes (i.e., the changes are not retained across a reboot
unless you save the configuration).
AutoSave Mode
If this option is selected, the downloaded configuration is automatically saved to persistent storage. If
this option is cleared, you must explicitly save the downloaded configuration in non-volatile memory
for the configuration to be available for the next reboot.
AutoReboot Mode
If this option is selected, the switch automatically reboots after a new image is successfully
downloaded and makes the downloaded image the active image. If this option is cleared, the device
continues to boot with the current image. The downloaded image will not become the active image
until the device reboots.
Retry Count
When attempting to retrieve the DHCP-specified configuration file, this value represents the number
of times the TFTP client on the device tries to use unicast requests before reverting to broadcast
requests.
Status
