5.8.4 Automatic update and configuration commands
Automatic update
The switch will automatically execute the update process, based on DHCP (prior to the automatic
configuration process), if autoupdate is enabled and the text file name (DHCP Option 125), containing the
firmware file name, is provided by DHCP server.
Automatic update process includes the following steps:
1. The switch downloads the text file and reads the firmware file name on TFTP server.
2. The switch downloads the first block (512 bytes) of the firmware image file from TFTP server
with the firmware version.
3. The switch compares firmware image file version, downloaded from TFTP server, with the
active image of the switch firmware. If they differ, the switch will download the firmware
image from TFTP server and make it active.
4. When the firmware image download is finished, the switch will restart.
Automatic configuration
The switch will automatically execute the configuration process, based on DHCP, if the following
conditions are met:
1. Automatic configuring is enabled in configuration.
2. DHCP server reply contains TFTP server IP address (DHCP Option 66) and configuration file
name (DHCP Option 67) in ASCII format.
Resulting configuration file will be added to the current (running) configuration.
If the user has enabled automatic saving ('boot host auto-save' command), the current
(running) configuration will be copied into the initial configuration (startup).
Switch will try to load configuration, if one of the following conditions is met:
1. The switch has default configuration.
2. User entered boot host dhcp command prior to the switch reboot, that will force the obtaining
of configuration on startup.
