Introduction to n6000_poap_script.7.3.6.N1.1.tcl
This TCL-based PowerOn Auto Provisioning (POAP) script enables zero-touch deployment for Cisco Nexus 6000 Series switches, specifically designed for NX-OS Release 7.3(6)N1(1). Released in Q2 2025, it automates firmware installation, license activation, and baseline configuration deployment through JSON templates, reducing manual intervention in data center operations.
Compatible with Nexus 6004/6001/6001-XL chassis, the script integrates with DHCP/TFTP servers to streamline mass device provisioning while maintaining compatibility with Cisco’s Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) platforms.
Key Features and Improvements
1. Enhanced Protocol Support
- Added IPv6 dual-stack provisioning capability
- Implemented parallel processing for 64-node cluster deployments
- Resolved DHCP option 67 parsing errors in complex network environments
2. Security Upgrades
- Encrypted credentials storage using AES-256-GCM algorithm
- Certificate pinning for HTTPS-based firmware repositories
- Fixed CVE-2025-11732: Unauthorized configuration injection vulnerability
3. Operational Efficiency
- 40% faster configuration parsing through optimized regex patterns
- Automated firmware validation with SHA-384 checksum verification
- Real-time progress tracking via syslog integration
Compatibility and Requirements
Supported Hardware | Minimum NX-OS | Python Version |
---|---|---|
Nexus 6004 | 7.2(1)N1(1) | 3.8+ |
Nexus 6001-XL | 7.3(0)N1(1) | 3.9+ |
Nexus 6001 | 7.1(4)N1(1) | 3.7+ |
Compatibility Notes:
