Manual installation
If you do not use the ONIE-based automatic installation of an OS10 image and if a DHCP server is not available, you can
manually install the image. Configure the Management port and provide the software image file to start the installation.
1. Save the OS10 software image on an SCP/TFTP/FTP server.
2. Power up the switch and select ONIE Rescue for manual installation.
3. Stop DHCP discovery.
$ onie-discovery-stop
4. Configure the IP addresses on the Management port, where x.x.x.x represents your internal IP address. After you configure
the Management port, the response is up.
$ ifconfig eth0 x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.0.0 up
5. Install the software on the device. The installation command accesses the OS10 software from the specified SCP, TFTP, or
FTP URL, creates partitions, verifies installation, and reboots itself.
$ onie-nos-install image_url
For example, enter
ONIE:/ # onie-nos-install ftp://a.b.c.d/PKGS_OS10–Enterprise-x.x.xx.bin
6. Where a.b.c.d represents the location to download the image file from, and x.x.xx represents the version number of the
software to install.
The OS10 installer image creates partitions and installs the OS10 software. After installation completes, the switch automatically
reboots and loads OS10 active image. The other image becomes the standby image.
