Chapter 2 Installing Cisco MNM

Performing a New Installation of Cisco MNM

Step 1 Go to the Cisco Product License Registration site at https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/Licensing/PrivateRegistrationServlet

Step 2 Fill in the Product Authorization Key (PAK). The PAK is provided on the Cisco EMF product CD sleeve. Step 3 Click Submit.

Step 4 Verify that the product information shown on the screen is correct, and then click Continue. Step 5 Select the version of the Cisco EMF product you are licensing in the Version number field.

Step 6 Enter the hostname of the server where the Cisco EMF product is installed. You can obtain the server’s hostname by entering the hostname command at the server’s command line prompt.

Note The server hostname must not include a period (.).

Step 7 Enter the host ID of the server where the Cisco EMF product is installed. (The host ID is a hexadecimal string that identifies the system; it is not the IP address.) You can obtain the server’s host ID by entering the hostid command at the server’s command line prompt.

Step 8 Read the End-User License Agreement and select I Accept. You must accept to get a license. Step 9 Verify the registrant information shown on the screen.

Task 7: Install CiscoView 6.1.8 on a Solaris 10 Operating System

 

 

Note

Cisco IP Transfer Point LinkExtender (ITP-L) replaces the term Cisco Signaling Link Terminal (SLT ).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CiscoView is a graphical device management tool based on the Simple Network Management

 

 

 

 

Protocol (SNMP) that provides real-time views of networked Cisco devices. Cisco MNM uses

 

 

 

 

CiscoView to configure and monitor the Cisco ITP-L and the LAN switch (Cisco Catalyst 2900, 5500,

 

 

 

 

and 6509) devices through a CiscoView server.

 

 

 

 

CiscoView is optional; install it only if you want to manage the Cisco ITP-L or LAN switches from Cisco

 

 

 

 

MNM.

 

 

 

 

Install CiscoView 6.1.8 before installing Cisco MNM 2.8(1) so that you can identify the CiscoView

 

 

 

 

server IP address that must be entered when you install Cisco MNM. You can install CiscoView locally

 

 

 

 

on the Cisco MNM workstation or on a remote server.

 

 

 

 

Use these steps to install CiscoView 6.1.8:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 1

Insert the LMS 3.1 DVD that comes with your Cisco MNM package in the DVD-ROM drive.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

CiscoView ships as part of LMS 3.1 with MGC Node Manager. Only the CiscoView part of LMS is

 

 

 

 

provided. To obtain licenses for other LMS features, order LMS 3.1 from the Cisco.com website.
