Dell S6000 FTOS 9.0(2.0) Configuration Guide for the System - Page 218

www.dell.com | support.dell.com Restrictions BMP 2.0 is supported on the user ports and management ports of a switch. Comparison of BMP 1.5 and 2.0 BMP 2.0 provides simplified auto-configuration options for customers. This feature enhancement provides a simplified CLI, additional support for file transfer protocols such as FTP and HTTP, and access to DHCP and file servers from both user and management ports, avoiding the need for dedicated management servers. BMP 1.5 Supported on S55 and S60. Supported on management ports only. Supports TFTP. Supports multiple reload modes (factory-default, factory-default dhcp-client-mode, factory-default dhcp-client-only-mode, factory-default dhcp-server-mode). BMP 2.0 Supported on S4810 and S6000. Supported on management and user ports. Supports TFTP, FTP, HTTP, USB, and flash. Supports simplified CLI for reload modes (normal-reload and jump-start). Overview On a new factory-loaded switch, the switch boots up in Jumpstart mode. You can reconfigure a switch to reload between Normal and Jumpstart mode. • Jumpstart (BMP) mode: The switch automatically configures all ports (management and user ports) as Layer 3 physical ports and acts as a DHCP client on the ports for a user-configured time (DHCP timeout). This is the default startup mode. It is set with the reload-type jump-start command. • Normal mode: The switch loads the FTOS image and startup configuration file stored in the local flash. New configurations require that the Management IP and Management Interface be configured manually. This mode is set with the reload-type normal-reload command. 196 | Bare Metal Provisioning 2.0 (BMP 2.0)
