When using AutoInstall over Frame Relay, you are put into setup
mode while the AutoInstall process is running. If the configuration file
is successfully installed, the setup process is terminated. If you expect
the AutoInstall process to be successful, either do not respond to the
setup prompts or respond to the prompts as:

Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes]: no

Would you like to terminate autoinstall? [yes]: no

If you do not expect the AutoInstall process to be successful, create
configuration file by responding to the setup prompts. The AutoInstall
process is terminated transparently.

You will see this display as the AutoInstall operation is in progress:

Please Wait. AutoInstall being attempted!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the host configuration file contains only the minimal information,
you must connect to existing using Telnet. From there, connect via
Telnet to newrouter. Then, run the

setup

command to configure ne

wrouter. Refer to

Use Setup for Configuration Changes

, for specific

information about the

setup

command.

If the host configuration file is complete, newrouter should be fully op-
erational. You can enter the

enable

command (with the system ad-

ministrator password) at the system prompt on newrouter. Then, enter
the

copy running-config startup-config

command to

save the information in the recently obtained configuration file into
nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) or to the location spec-
ified by the CONFIG_FILE environment variable. If it must reload,
newrouter simply loads its configuration file from NVRAM.

If the TFTP request fails, or if newrouter still has not obtained the IP
addresses of all its interfaces, and if those addresses are not contained
in the host configuration file, then newrouter enters setup mode auto-
matically. Setup mode prompts you for manual configuration of the
Cisco IOS software at the console. The new router continues to issue
broadcasts to attempt to learn its host name and obtain any unresolved
interface addresses. The broadcast frequency will dwindle to every 10
minutes after several attempts. Refer to

Use Setup for Configuration

Change

, for specific information about th

setup

command.
