For HTTP or TFTP zero-touch installation, perform the following steps: 1. Install a Linux web server, such as Apache, that a switch can access after it has obtained an IP address from a DHCP server. 2. Copy the ONIE updater file to the path shared by the web server, such as /var/www/html, and rename it to onie-updater or another qualified file name. Note: For a listing of qualified file names used by ONIE auto-discovery, see Appendix C. 3. Create a DNS entry to resolve onie-server to the Linux web server address. Note: This only applies if DNS is used to identify the onie-server. 4. Test web access to the onie-updater file by entering http:/// into the web browser's URL field on a system that is in the same IP subnet. The directory displays the updater file. 5. Click on the file to download a local copy. The test passes when the file successfully downloads. 6. To update ONIE, perform the following steps on each switch: a. With ONIE installed on the switch, connect the OOB port to the network containing the web server. b. Turn on the switch and select ONIE: Update. The switch automatically starts the autodiscovery and zero-touch installation. c. Once the ONIE update is complete, ONIE reboots the switch. 7.1.2 USB The following are prerequisites for using a USB drive to install an operating system using the automatic zerotouch option: • The USB drive needs to be in a FAT32 or EXT2 format • The file name needs to be a qualified onie-updater file name for the switch. Note: For a listing of qualified file names used by ONIE auto-discovery, see Appendix C. 7.2 Manual update To manually install the update, stop the auto-discovery process using the onie-discovery-stop command. 7.2.1 HTTP, TFTP, and FTP To update ONIE manually, enter the following command to download and apply the update over the network.
