CEMF Crypto Add-on Package Software

If you want to use SSH for secure communications with SSH-enabled network components, download the CEMF Crypto Add-On package available at

http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cemf-addon-3des

Download both the CEMF Crypto Add-on Package Software and the CEMF Crypto Add-on Package Installation Guide. You must have authorization to download cryptographic software. If you do not have it, you are automatically redirected to an authorization request page.

CiscoView 6.1.8 (from LMS DVD—Solaris 10 only). Install CiscoView 6.1.8 if you want to manage Cisco ITP-Ls or Cisco LAN switches (Cisco MNM uses the CiscoView server as the management interface). Install CiscoView before you install Cisco EMF and Cisco MNM. The full LMS 3.1 package is not licensed when included with Cisco MNM. However, you can purchase the complete LMS 3.1 product and install it with the MGC Node Manager on the same Sun Server. Make sure there is enough disk and partition space, since the full LMS package is large.

Note If Cisco MNM coexists with CiscoView 6.1.8 on a Solaris 10 Operating System, the version of the Solaris Operating System must be the November 2006 release or higher, and the minimum recommended cluster patch levels are those released April 17, 2007.

Cisco VSPT. The Cisco VSPT version must support your version of the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software. If you are managing nodes with

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch hosts running different software versions, you can install multiple VSPT versions. Cisco MNM automatically launches the correct version for the selected host.

For the latest VSPT patch, go to http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/vspt. For Cisco MNM release notes, go to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/netmgtsw/ps1912/prod_release_notes_list.html.

Note CD is the installation media for Cisco MNM, and DVD is the installation media for LMS 3.1 and CiscoView 6.1.8.

X Terminal Software

You must have Reflection 7.2 or higher installed to access Cisco MNM from a remote workstation. See the “Task 11: Set Up the X Terminal Workstations for Remote Access” section on page 2-20for more information.

Solaris Operating System

The machines that run Cisco MNM must have the Sun Solaris 10 operating system with Common Desktop Environment (CDE) 1.3 installed.
