Chapter 2 Preparing to Install Components

Installation and Startup Process

If, during DPE installation, the installation program detects the presence of a TFTP server running on the same computer that the DPE being installed on, the installation is immediately terminated and an error message appears on screen.

Key Distribution Center (KDC). For maximum performance and segmentation of the network, you may install one KDC instance per provisioning group. The KDC, along with the DPE registration service, handles the authentication of all PacketCable voice technology MTAs. When a laboratory installation is performed, the KDC is installed on the lab computer. For performance reasons however, in a component installation, the KDC should be installed on a separate server. The KDC component requires a license.

Note The KDC and DPE have service keys that are required to allow them to communicate.

Although the component installation program supports installing the components on the same computer, in practice, you are likely to run the program on several different computers as described in these sections:

1.Installing the RDU on a Solaris 8 or 9 server.

2.Installing the Network Registrar extensions on a Network Registrar server or servers.

3.Installing the DPE on Solaris Sparc computers running Solaris 8 or Solaris 9.

4.Installing the KDC server.

Installation and Startup Process

To ensure a smooth installation and startup process, complete the order of operations as listed in Table 2-1.

Table 2-1 Installation and Startup Process

Item Description

1.Determine which components you are installing and on what computers.

2.Verify the file system block size of the directory in which you intend to install the BACC database and database transaction log files. See the “Broadband Access Center Database Requirements” section on page 2-5.

3.Review the installation checklist. See the “Installation Checklist” section on page 2-6.

4.Install a DPE. When you install the DPE, ensure that you have this information available:

Home Directory location

Data Directory location

After Solaris DPE installation is complete, you must configure the DPE using the command line interface (CLI). Refer to the Cisco Broadband Access Center for Cable CLI Reference Guide for these configuration instructions.
