HOWTO: Run the Authoritative On-Prem Foundation

The authoritative on-prem reference scenario establishes the network and inventory foundation before optional platform expansion. This HOWTO covers dependency order, logical authority binding, preflight admission, linked run records, and safe continuation from a partial run.

What this covers:

  • Logical inventory_ipam authority resolved independently of the dependent operation
  • Fail-closed preflight and attributable authority receipt
  • Network foundation → inventory authority → optional platform expansion
