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.
