Hello,
I was also working on this topic and found same issues. Sincerelery I
thought this was a easy topic but it seems I was wrong.
What I found about this:
- The new router using Auto-Install will only use the first serial interface
available (s0, sx/0).
- If the new router only has ethernet interfaces, it will only use the first
ethernet interface (e0, ex/0).
- The interface addressing can be assigned via SLARP, BOOTP or DHCP.
- SLARP is used when the new router is connected to the staging router via
HDLC.
- BOOTP is used when the new router is connected to the staging router via
FR.
- DHCP is used over ethernet but the DHCP server must be on the same segment
as the new router.
After initial ip addressing assigment, the DHCP server (ethernet) or the
staging router (HDLC or FR) will take care of TFTP requests (option 150 or
ip helper-address).
Then the new router will query the TFTP server about a "network-confg" file.
Then the new router will query the TFTP server about a
"new-router-hostname-confg" file.
Everything is well explained in the DocCD:

Subject: Autoinstall over ethernet
There's something I'm missing here. I'm toying around with autoinstall to
understand it better and I believe I have most of it setup correctly. I'm
trying to build a router by autoinstall that has both a FR connection and an
Ethernet link. I am using a router connected to the ethernet side as
DHCP/DNS and TFTP server.
I'm taking the process step by step and thus, not using a network-confg
file, rather DNS to provide the hostname.
The router being built properly aquires an IP address for the ethernet
link via DHCP and its hostname through reverse-dns. However, beyond that
point it only tries to pull down config files only by utilizing Serial0/0
rather than E0/0.

Is there something else I need to do in order for it to use e0/0?
What am I missing? Thanks in advance for your input.
