Before configuring Apstra server details, we recommend that you create a user profile on the Apstra server for the sole purpose of interacting with Apstra ZTP.

You'll need to specify the Apstra server IP address communicates with ZTP devices and the Apstra ZTP server. The Apstra ZTP server and the devices to be onboarded with ZTP connect to the Apstra server API, for logging and device system agent creation.

  1. Log in to the Apstra ZTP server GUI.
  2. If this is the first time you're logging in after changing the default password, you're presented with a 3-step wizard. Step 1 of the wizard is to configure Apstra server details. The wizard runs only the first time you log in with the new password; It won't appear again, unless you reset the Apstra ZTP GUI password. (You can skip this step and come back later to complete this configuration.)

    If you're not using the wizard, then from the left navigation menu of the Apstra ZTP GUI, click Settings, then click Configure Apstra Server Details, as shown below.

  3. Enter the Apstra server IP address that will communicate with ZTP devices and the Apstra ZTP server.
  4. Enter the username and password for the ZTP user profile you previously created, then click Submit & Proceed (or Save if you're not using the wizard). The Apstra server credentials are verified; incorrect credentials result in an error.
Next Step: Configure DHCP Server for Apstra ZTP.
