Chapter 7: Installing Support Tools

About Installing Support Tools

Install the Support Tools Node

Install the Support Tools Node on each ICM or related Cisco Product you want to manage through Support Tools. The Support Tools Nodes installation includes:

The Support Tools Node Agent Service

Support Tools Web utilities and certain Unix-style 3rd Party Common Tools.

Support Tools documentation

Note: Other Support Tools utilities are not part of the Support Tools installation. Rather, these utilities already exist on each node, distributed as part of standard ICM and Windows installations.

Enable ports for Support Tools

Support Tools uses the following ports:

Tomcat (the Cisco CCBU Support Tools HTTP Server) by default listens for HTTP requests on port 8188. It listens for HTTPS requests (used for SSL) by default on port 8189.

Support Tools requires a port (39100 by default) to communicate between the Support Tools Server and Nodes. Ensure that this port is available on each node managed by Support Tools.

If a firewall stands between the Support Tools Server and any Support Tools node, and/or between the Support Tools Server and remote users, you must open these ports on the firewall.

Test the installation

After installing Support Tools, perform a few simple tests to verify that the install was successful.

Post-Installation Configuration

All basic configuration required by Support Tools is set during installation. Immediately after installation, no further configuration is necessary to begin using the product.

However, as desired, after installation you can modify the settings chosen during installation, or use certain optional behaviors that require further configuration.
