Software Installation and Upgrade

  • ZTP with IPv6 support (QFX5200-32C)—Use a DHCPv6 client and zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) to provision a device. During the bootstrap process, the device first uses the DHCPv4 client to request for information regarding the image and configuration file from the DHCP server. The device checks the DHCPv4 and DHCPv4 bindings sequentially. If one of the DHCPv4 bindings fails, the device continues to check for bindings until provisioning is successful. However, if there are no DHCPv4 bindings, the device follows the same process for DHCPv6 until the device is provisioned successfully. Both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 clients are included as part of the default configuration on the device.

    The DHCP server uses DHCPv6 options 59 and 17 and applicable suboptions to exchange ZTP-related information with the DHCP client.
