One big thing to document is the boot sequence and how addressing works.

I'll write something here and then move it to the docs later.

Addressing

When booting u-bmc will by default only try IPv6 stateless auto-configuration. For DNS resolver configuration if the IPv6 RA contains the option for DHCPv6 it will be used, otherwise RDNSS will be used.

If enabled in the system.textpb configuration, DHCPv4 can be used to get IPv4 as well as nameserver configuration.

Also static addressing, VLAN information, and routes can be added in system.textpb in addition or substituting the automatic configuration mentioned above.
