Powering Up the Server for the First Time

Step 5 Type A to accept the license agreements and continue. The server takes about seven minutes to install the operating system.

Step 6 When prompted by the system to do so, press any key to shut down and reboot the server. The reboot takes about two minutes to complete.

Step 7 Click on I Agree to accept the Windows NT license agreement. The server then displays the Windows NT Server Setup Wizard.

Continue configuring the server by completing the steps in “Entering the Server Configuration

Data” section on page 7.

Entering the Server Configuration Data

Using the data you entered in Table 1, complete the following steps to configure the MCS-7830:

Step 1 In the Windows NT Server Setup Wizard, enter your name and organization, then click

Next.

Step 2 Enter the Product ID number listed on the Windows NT Certificate of Authenticity that comes with the server. Click Next.

Step 3 Enter a unique network name for the server, then click Next. The name must follow

Windows NT naming conventions.

Step 4 Click Next to begin installing Windows NT Networking.

Step 5 Select the setting that correctly describes how the server will participate on the network, then click Next. In most cases, you will want the server to participate by being wired to the network via a network adapter.

Note Step 6 is very important. You must turn off the checkbox for Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) in order for Cisco CallManager to install properly.

Step 6 Do not install Microsoft Internet Information Server. Turn off the checkbox for this option and click Next.

Step 7 Click Start Search to begin searching for a network adapter. After the search finds the default adapter, click Next.

Step 8 Turn off the checkbox for NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport protocol, and click

Next.

Step 9 Click Next to accept the default settings for Network Services.

Step 10 Click Next to install the selected networking components.

Step 11 Cisco recommends that you click No when prompted about the use of DHCP to set the IP address of the server. The MCS-7830 must have a fixed IP address so that the Cisco IP phones can register with Cisco CallManager when you plug the phones into the network. If you use DHCP to assign an IP address to the server dynamically, this could result in a new IP address being assigned to the server if the server is disconnected and reconnected to the network. Returning the server to its original IP address would then require reprogramming the IP addresses of the other devices on the network.

Step 12 Set the properties as desired for SNMP services, then click OK. If you are not using

SNMP services, click Cancel without setting any properties.
