In the provisioning blog article, it suggests that the best method is -L on and using option 66 or sunray-config-servers to manage firmware.

Unless you really need some specific vendor class options such as logging levels (really a lab environment type thing), it's by far the easiest setup and requires the least amount of management.

This brings forward the general question of what are the semantics of
-a, -A, and -L.  From the docs, the simple rule is to use -a for
"dedicated interconnect" and -A for "shared network".  The manual says
that -A also turns on the "LAN connection" a la -L.

We are having a hard time figuring out what exactly what each of those
utadm options actually does with regard to auth servers, firmware
servers, etc.

In our facility, we have multiple class C IP subnets running on the
same VLAN (we have no direct control of VLAN configs - that's campus
networking) and are starting to have DTUs and servers on various of
the IP subnets (but on the same LAN!).  I believe this circumstance is
causing some of our confusion as it may not be common in Sun Ray
deployments.

Is there a write-up somewhere that explains the bigger question of
what the utadm -a, -A, and -L do under the hood?  If it's in the docs,
I'd appreciate a pointer because we must have missed it.

Also, this all ties in to the various status flags in the utgstatus
output...  How do the T N U A M flags relate to those utadm configs?

thanks,
