ONIE service discovery
ONIE attempts to locate the installer through a number of discovery methods, as shown. To download and run an installer, the ONIE
Service Discovery feature uses the rst successful method found.
1 Passed from the boot loader.
2 Search locally attached storage devices for one of the ONIE default installer lenames (for example, USB).
3 Exact URLs from DHCPv4.
4 Inexact URLs based on DHCPv4 responses.
5 Query to IPv6 link-local neighbors using HTTP for an installer.
6 TFTP waterfall — from DHCPv4 option 66
Examples of the ONIE ifconfig eth0 Commands
If none of the ONIE Service Discovery methods are successful, you can disable this using the onie-discovery-stop command.
You can install an operating system manually from HTTP, FTP, or TFTP using the onie-nos-install <URL> command.
The ONIE Install environment uses DHCP to assign an IP address to the management interface (eth0). If that fails, it uses the default IP
address 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0.
To display the IP address, use the ifconfig eth0 command.
The following is an example of the ifconfig eth0 command.
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0
