Zero Touch Provisioning limitations
The following limitations apply to the Zero Touch Provisioning feature.
• By default, Zero Touch Provisioning is always enabled on a management port.
• Zero Touch Provisioning fails on a management port which has a static address configured on
it.
• Zero Touch Provisioning does not support trunked ports or Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) ports.
• During the Zero Touch Provisioning update, the existing configuration takes precedence over
any configuration downloaded from the TFTP server.
• VE and VLAN numbers that are chosen for Zero Touch Provisioning cannot be used for other
configurations.
Upgrade and downgrade considerations
• During a network upgrade procedure, the downloaded configuration files (as a part of the Zero
Touch Provisioning process) may contain commands that cannot be executed using the current
software version. In such a scenario, download the configuration files after a system reboot
following the image download.
• During a network downgrade procedure, inspect the running configuration, because the
system ignores errors due to incompatible commands from the previous configuration.
