Installing Software from a Network Management Station 4-3

Before installing the software from CD-ROM, make sure that:

Your network management station is running Solaris 2.4 or 2.5x, SunOS 4.1.4, HP-UX 9.0.5, 10.10 or 10.20, or IBM AIX 3.2.5, 4.1.4 or 4.2. To verify the operating system environment, enter:

uname -a

The version message refers to Solaris 2.5x as SunOS 5.5.

You know the root password.

The network management station has sufficient disk space for the amount of software you are installing. Minimal disk storage requirements are dependent on the number of NETBuilder systems being installed. Allocate 40 MB for the NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities and software image, 4 MB for each NETBuilder II system.

The NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities released with this software package have been installed on the network management station. Refer to Upgrading NETBuilder Family Software for more information.

Install a blank flash memory card in the NETBuilder II bridge/router. For installation instructions, refer to the NETBuilder II Flash Memory Drive Installation Guide.

For a list of flash memory cards that can be used with the CEC 20 module, refer to the software release notes.
