Step 5. Generate Configuration File
Before preparing the configuration image in TFTP/FTP Server, please make sure the device
generating the configuration image is set to “Get IP address from DHCP” assignment. This
is because that DHCP Auto-provisioning is running under DHCP mode, so if the
configuration image is uploaded by the network type other than DHCP mode, the
downloaded configuration image has no chance to be equal to DHCP when provisioning,
and it results in MD5 never match and causes the device to reboot endless.
In order for your Managed Switch to retrieve the correct configuration image in TFTP/FTP
Server, please make sure the filename of your configuration file is defined exactly the same
as the one specified in in dhcpd.conf. For example, if the configuration image’s filename
specified in dhcpd.conf is “metafile”, the configuration image filename should be named to
“metafile” as well.
Step 6. Put a copy of Firmware and Configuration File in TFTP/FTP Server
The TFTP/FTP File server should include the following items:
1. Firmware image
2. Configuration image
3. User account for your device (For FTP server only)
