• Google Maps were not loaded properly. Refer to Using Google Maps section in
User Guide for more details. (20461)
• The internal file server is locking the password for minutes at a time, so as a
result, the deployment will fail for some of the devices. That is why we state in
documentation to use internal file server for lab/test purposes and external file
server for live network purposes. (11591)

• Devices running 9.10 firmware version or newer are collecting KPI information
using SNMP protocol. Since older firmware doesn't support KPI information
using SNMP protocol, OMNM still needs to use CLI to retrieve information from
the devices. (27757)
• The EOL Report ALL Devices report was pre-seeded with Force10 end of life(EOL)
and end of service(EOS) dates. In event of upgrade, these dates will override the
pre registered EOL/EOS dates of Force10 models. See Network Assessor Reports
section in the User Guide to update your EOL/EOS dates. (27759)
• Zero-touch provisioning is a process through which devices can be automatically
configured and provisioned. Auto-discovery is a related process through which
Dell OpenManage Network Manager automatically discovers unmanaged devices
that have been configured to send traps.
To enable zero-touch provisioning within your network, you will need an
external DHCP server. This server needs to be configured to automatically
provision new devices with a basic configuration file. You can include any basic
configuration settings you want within this file. See the Zero-Touch Provisioning
and Auto-Discovery section of the User Guide for information on how to activate
auto-discovery of network devices within OMNM. (28022)
