What does that mean?

Hello,
while iam reading mac os x server essentials v10.6, on remote installation section i found the following:
mac os x server 10.6 can be configured automatically using a configuration file generated by server assistant ( which you can open from the server admin application) . The configuration file can be stored on another mounted volume such as an ipod USB or firewire storage device, or cd/dvd.
In order to make your configuration file available to a Mac OS X Server that is waiting at the Welcome pane to be configured, you must place it in a folder named Auto Server Setup at the root of any volume accessible to the server. The configuration file is generally named AutoServerSetup.plist, but you can name it whatever you like, as long as the file- name ends in .plist.
When you save the configuration file, you have two choices:
“Apply this profile to any server”
“Apply this profile only if any of the following conditions are true”
You can set conditions based on the following elements:
Serial number
MAC address
IP address
DNS name
For example, you can set the condition that the serial number starts with G86 and the MAC address ends in 88.
i don't understand, and i kept searching about server assistant from server admin application to get generate configuration file button but i didn't got it.
Please explain...

If I understand what you're asking here, see page 115ff in the [Advanced Server Administration|http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/AdvancedServer_Adminv10.6.pdf] manual. With Server Admin 10.6.5, there is a Create Auto Server Setup Profile entry in the Server menu.
