Attempting to simulate some future ZTP work in GNS3 with the ArubaOS-CXSimulationSoftware10.04.0001-1. By default, it looks like a switch would have it's mgmt port configure for ip dhcp. However, this virtual O/S comes with all ports administratively down. So at a minimum, I need to adjust the config to up one of the interfaces and save it. After I reboot it, it looks like DHCP and ZTP starts to work, because it grabs the configuration file but then logs this Status : Aborted - Custom startup configuration detected:

It could be that I just can't simulate this due to the way the virtual O/S works? Assume ZTP stops if it detects any configuration in any form and that is why it doesn't work?
