4Configuring the Router and CWI Client

To install CWI and for CWI to manage a router, specific configuration pieces must be active on the router. If you want to use the serial port or terminal server connection method after installation, no further router configuration is required. For all other connection methods, ensure that the router is configured, as described in this section.

The “Troubleshooting Basic IP Connectivity” section on page 24 provides information on resolving connectivity problems. See Cisco IOS XR System Management Configuration Guide for information on the capabilities of, installation of

Cisco IOS XR software packages on, and bootup of the router.

These sections describe how to set up client connections on the router:
