Automatic configuration with DHCP and BootP Auto Install eases large deployments with scalable configuration file
management capability, IP address and host name mapping, and provides individual configuration files to multiple
switches as soon as they are initialized on the network. For instance, factory-default configuration settings can be
changed for GSM7xxxS series rear I/O bays – reverting them to Ethernet mode instead of Stacking mode when deployed
in standalone applications. Auto-install is a pragmatic, scalable solution for accelerating out-of-the-box provisioning and
deployment processes.
