Step 6 Eject the CD from the CD-ROM drive, disconnect the CD-ROM drive from the CDE, and choose Option
8 to exit and reboot. Press Y and Enter to confirm the reboot request.
The system boots from the IDE compact flash drive with the data installed from the CD. All prior data
is removed and the original system remains unaffected.
Caution Be sure to disconnect the CD-ROM drive before rebooting the system or the system will not
boot with the normal image.
Initially Configuring a CDE
This section provides the steps to perform the initial software configuration after a CDE has been loaded
with a CDS software image for the first time. The initial configuration must be done on all CDEs (SEs,
SRs, and CDSM) in a network.

Assigning the Primary Interface

The CDE must be configured with a primary interface that acts as the management interface for the CDE.
Any interface in the CDE can be configured as the primary interface. Interface GigabitEthernet 1/0 is
chosen by default to be the primary interface.
Enter the following commands to assign a primary interface:
CDE# configure
CDE(config)# primary-interface GigabitEthernet 1/0
