Initial configuration file management

You can manage the pre-defined and user-defined initial configuration files. 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.

Configuring the DHCP server

IMC provides you with the automatic initial configuration function for zero-configuration devices. When

a zero-configuration device or a simple-configuration device is connected to IMC and started up, the

DHCP server assigns an IP address to the device and sends the TFTP server address and initial
configuration file name to the device. The device then downloads the initial configuration file from the

TFTP server to complete automatic configuration.
Configure the address pool, network management system, DNS server, domain name, TFTP server

address, initial configuration file name, and lease duration on the DHCP server.
The following guidelines apply to configuration file management:

If the DHCP server and the device are not on the same network segment, configure a DHCP relay
agent on the gateway that connects to the device.
