Netgear M4300-24X24F (XSM4348S) - Stackable Managed Switch with 48x10G including 24x10GBASE-T and 24xSFP+ Layer 3 Guia Do Programa

You can terminate the Auto Install process at any time before downloading any configuration 
files. Terminate the Auto Install process if the switch is disconnected from the network or if no 
configuration files are configured on the TFTP server. Termination of the Auto Install process 
ends further periodic requests for a host-specific file.

The configuration files downloaded through Auto Install are stored in nonvolatile memory. 
The files can be managed (viewed, displayed, deleted) along with files downloaded through 
the configuration scripting utility.

A configuration file is not automatically deleted after it is downloaded. However, the 

configuration file does not take effect upon a reboot. If you save the configuration file, the 
saved configuration takes effect upon reboot. If you do not save the configuration file, the 

Auto Install process occurs again on a subsequent reboot. A repeated install might cause 

previously downloaded files to be overwritten.

If the configuration file is not found on the switch, the Auto Install process automatically starts 
a subsequent reboot. A restart of the install process can occur if the configuration was never 
saved on the switch or if you issued a command to erase the configuration file.

During a particular session, you can restart the Auto Install process if you previously stopped 
it during the same login session. This action reinitiates the process for that login session only. 
We recommend that you restart the install process only when you are certain that the 
configuration is clear.

If no configuration file is stored on the switch, reinitialization of the switch after you enter the 
erase startup-config

 command automatically activates the Auto Install process.

The switch logs a message for each of the following events:

The Auto Install component receives a configuration file name and other options upon 
resolving an IP address through a DHCP client. The boot option values are logged.

The Auto Install component initiates a TFTP request for a boot (configuration) file and 
receives the file, or the request times out. File names and server IP addresses and host 
names are logged.

The Auto Install component initiates a request for a host name. The IP address and 
resolved host name are logged.

The Auto Install component initiates a TFTP request for a hostname.cfg file and 
receives the file, or the request times out. File names and server IP addresses and host 
names are logged.

The start of a configuration script is being applied.

The CLI scripting utility fails to apply a configuration file.
