How a deployment works

  1. Define the source. Clone a live machine or use an image already stored in NetEdge. No prior preparation or intermediate steps.
  2. Configure the deployment. Pick a recipe, or let the system tune itself automatically with no manual intervention.
  3. Start the machines. Mass wake-up via Wake-on-LAN, network boot and automatic join to the deployment.
  4. P2P distribution. Machines exchange data from the start; the server is no longer the bottleneck. Monitor everything live from the panel.

Network boot

Machines boot from the network with no prior installation — old hardware via PXE, modern via iPXE. Menus, per-MAC scripts and proxy or full server mode are controlled from the panel.

# Also available as a CLI for headless environments:
netdd serve --source /dev/sda --recipe p2p-adaptive --verify blake3
