ICS supports zero touch provisioning. This feature can detect and assign DHCP networking settings automatically at the ICS boot up. The following ICS parameters should be set to null in order to fetch the networking configuration automatically from the DHCP server.

•vaIPAddress

•vaExternalIPAddress

•vaManagementIPAddress

•vaNetworkStack

•vaManagementIPv6Address

• vaExternalPrefix

•vaNetmask

•vaExternalNetmask

•vaManagementNetmask

•vaIPv6Address

•vaManagementPrefix

•vaExternalIPv6Gateway

•vaGateway

•vaExternalGateway

•vaManagementGateway

•vaPrefix

• vaManagementIPv6Gateway

  

•vaPrimaryDNS

•vaSecondaryDNS

•vaDNSDomain

• vaIPv6Gateway

•vaExternalIPv6Address

  

Leased IP from DHCP server should be valid for a long time as ICS does not request for DHCP renewals.
