Create the Document Root Directory
Check the Client OBP for WAN Boot Support
Install the wanboot Program on the WAN Boot Server
Create the /etc/netboot Hierarchy
Copy the wanboot-cgi Program to the WAN Boot Server
(Optional) Configure the WAN Boot Server as a Logging Server
Configure the WAN Boot Server to Use HTTPS
Provide the Trusted Certificate to the Client
(Optional) Use Private Key and Certificate for Client Authentication
Create the Keys for the Server and the Client
Create and Validate the rules File
Check the net Device Alias in OBP
Create a system configuration file that lists the locations of the sysidcfg file and the JumpStart files on the install server. Save this file in a directory that is accessible to the WAN boot server.
In the following example, the wanboot-cgi program looks for the sysidcfg and JumpStart files in the document root directory of the WAN boot server. The domain name of the WAN boot server is https://www.example.com. The WAN boot server is configured to use secure HTTP, so the data and files are protected during the installation.
In this example, the system configuration file is named sys-conf.s10–sparc, and the file is saved in the /etc/netboot hierarchy on the WAN boot server. The sysidcfg and JumpStart files are located in the flash subdirectory of the document root directory.
