The access server is now configured and will boot with the configuration you have entered. Configuring the Access Server Using AutoInstall The AutoInstall process is designed to configure the access server automatically after connection to your WAN. In order for AutoInstall to work properly, a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) host on your network must be preconfigured to provide the required configuration files. The TCP/IP host may exist anywhere on the network, as long as the following two conditions are maintained: 1 The host must be on the remote side of the access server's synchronous serial connection to the WAN. 2 User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcasts to and from the access server and the TCP/IP host must be enabled.
