JumpStart is a client/server system for installing Solaris systems on a local area network using a Standard Operating Environment (SOE). This removes the need to individually configure each installation on every host on a subnet. This greatly reduces the administrative burden on sysadmins, as most client systems use exactly the same settings, particularly within the same organizational unit.
