# This script demonstrates a strategy for redfish bmcs that
# dhcp to leverage the confluent switch scanning to help
# bootstrap such devices. Be aware of the uuid reformatting
# code, and determine if it is relevant for the target system
# in question. The normal thing would be to leave UUID as-is,
# but some implementations mangle it in a misunderstanding
# of 'wire format' UUID. Also, here xCAT is used as the
# 'dhcp helper', so that may need to be replaced with dnsmasq
# or direct isc dhcp code.
# Unfortunately, this is particular about the dhcp server,
# the user must know if the bmc in question mangles the uuid
# or not, and other such limitation make this difficult to blindly
# recommend, but hopefully can be useful reference material
