ZeroTouch

4min

Zerotouch provisioning allows you to automatically install Edge instance configurations, applications, and docker files onto multiple devices.

The Zerotouch tab allows you to:

  • Set up a static IP with subnet mask, gateway, and DNS settings.
  • Add Docker containers to the Zerotouch TAR.
  • Display an MD5 checksum to verify the file.
  • Create and download Zerotouch TAR files.
  • Log actions like file creation and timestamps.

Important Notes:

  • Large files may take longer to generate.
  • FAT32 USB drives don’t support files over 4GB—use NTFS or EXT4 instead.
  • Once created, Zerotouch configurations cannot be edited.
  • Zerotouch files are not included in backups but remain available after system updates.
