Managing automatic deployment plans

IMC provides a facility for automatic executions of software upgrade, startup configuration deployment,

CLI script execution, and configuration backup for devices with zero or simple configurations. With the

Auto Deployment Plan feature, you can quickly configure devices in batch to operate properly without
manual intervention.
An auto deployment plan is a set of automatic deployment operations that the network administrator

defines for devices according to the network plan. IMC displays automatic deployment plans in a nested

table. The external table shows information about each automatic deployment plan, including the plan
name, creator, creation time, and the execution status of each device in the plan. The internal table shows

information about automatic deployment devices, including the MAC address, current IP address, target

IP address, mask, and operating status. As for automatic deployment plans,
IMC provides the functions of adding, deleting, modifying, and viewing automatic deployment plans. As
for automatic deployment devices, IMC provides the functions of adding, deleting, modifying, viewing,

and importing automatic deployment devices, triggering deployment, and viewing automatic

deployment execution results.
An initial configuration file in IMC is deployed on a zero-configuration device through DHCP after the
device is powered on. The initial configuration file must contain basic SNMP and Telnet parameters.

After the zero-configuration device executes the initial configuration file, IMC automatically adds the

device through auto discovery and apply a pre-configured automatic deployment plan to it.
Automatic deployment plans can be triggered for the following devices:

Zero-configuration devices that are powered on and automatically added to IMC. Before powering
on a zero-configuration device, the network administrator must configure on the DHCP server the
