Kickstart Files

We recommend to use VMs for NMS Prime. This will make life easier, see Setting up the linux environment. For this purpose you should first setup the KVM host and afterwards NMS Prime on top of it as a VM. See below for the required kickstart files.


The following kickstart files will only work if dhcp is enabled!
