Abstract

A small-form programmable pluggable deviceis used to establish communication between a configurable 'bare-metal' serverhaving no existing configuration software installed, and a provisioning servercapable of downloading software to the configurable serverto allow the configurable serverto be configured to perform a specific function. The pluggable device carries sufficient programming to access the required softwareand deliver it to the configurable server. This allows the configurable server to be delivered to its end-user before configuration, and configuration to be performed by the network operator in situ, but without a site visit, by delivery and plug-in of the small-form device, which is typically of a suitable size to be mailed.
