Enabling Auto Configuration
As shown in the diagram below, two subsequent events drive the automatic
configuration of Nomadix devices:
1. A flow of RADIUS Authentication Request and Reply messages between the
Nomadix gateway and the centralized RADIUS server that specifies the location
of the meta configuration file (containing a listing of the individual configuration
files and their download frequency status) are downloaded from an FTP server
into the flash of the Nomadix device.
2. Defines the automated login into the centralized FTP server and the actual
download process into the flash.
The Auto-Configuration setup requires a few basic steps to be completed by both the
field engineer and the NOC administrator:
