boot host auto-config
| Syntax | boot host auto-config [tftp |scp |auto[extension]] no boot host auto-config |
| Parameters | tftp—Only the TFTP protocol is used by auto-configuration. scp—Only the SCP protocol is used by auto-configuration. auto—(Default) Auto-configuration uses the TFTP or SCP protocol dependingon the configuration file’s extension. If this option is selected, the extension parameter may be specified or, if not, the default extension is used. extension—The SCP file extension. When no value is specified, ‘scp’ is used.
