Enterasys Networks XSR-3150 manual Remote Auto Install Attempting Forever

Optional: Configuring Remote Auto Install

Note the use of a helper-addressto specify a destination address for UDP broadcasts and forward traffic to the DNS and TFTP servers. In the example below, DNS and TFTP servers reside on the same node - 10.10.1.2 (configuration of DNS and TFTP servers are not shown here). In short, the DNS server should map IP addresses 133.133.1.2 and 133.133.1.3 to hostnames. On the TFTP server, you should create a startup-config file with names <hostname>-config in a directory accessible by TFTP.

XSR(config)#interface serial 1/0.1 multi-point XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#ip helper-address 10.10.1.2 XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#ip address 133.133.1.1 XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#frame-relay interface-dlci 16 ip 133.133.1.2 bootp XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#frame-relay interface-dlci 18 ip 133.133.1.3 bootp XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#no shutdown

XSR(config-if<S1/0.1>)#exit XSR(config)exit

XSR#copy running-config startup-config

RAI displays the following phased output on the remote node. Refer to the accompanying notes for additional explanation of phases.

********************* REMOTE AUTO INSTALL STARTING ***************

+RAI is starting up.

************* REMOTE AUTO INSTALL ATTEMPTING FOREVER **************

+Persistent (or Non-Persistent) RAI is attempted.

Phase 0 - Initialization and Starting search for proper media-type Phase 0 - Trying media-type V35

******** PRESS ANY KEY TO TERMINATE REMOTE AUTO INSTALL ***********

+A periodic reminder that you can terminate the program at any time by depressing any key on your keyboard. Be aware that any existing startup-config that may exist in the node will be executed.

Phase 1 - Trying media-type RS232

+Upon failing, the next media-type is tried.

Phase 1 - Frame Relay interface Serial 1/0 reported DLCI 16 active

+Frame Relay has successfully found a FR network with active DLCIs.

Phase 2 - transmitting bootp - attempt #1

+The bootp client is sending out a request. At most, five requests will be tried.

Phase 3 - received IP address: 133.133.1.2

+The bootp client has received a response and the IP address for this interface is 133.133.1.2.

Phase 4 - Sending out Reverse DNS query onto Frame Relay

+rDNS is sending out a query looking for the hostname for IP address 133.133.1.2

Phase 6 - getting hostname xsrnode-confg from tftp server into flash: startup- config

+rDNS has responded with the hostname xsrnode which will be used in the TFTP transfer. RAI will try several file names if this file is not available from the server.

Phase 7 - preparing node to execute startup-config

3-4 Software Configuration
