Prime Network Setup Tasks

Verify the following:
• You can control user access in two ways:
–
By requiring users to enter device credentials before they can execute a CCM operation
–
By allowing users to run CCM jobs only if they have been granted those privileges (controlled
in their user account)
For information on enabling these features, see the information on global user settings in the Cisco
Prime Network 4.0 Administration Guide.
• Verify that CCM is installed. The installation process is described in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0
Installation Guide. CCM can be instal led u sing the ne twork -conf com ma nd. T he gu ide incl udes
information about supported browsers, ports that must be available, and so forth.
To check if CCM is installed, log into the Prime Network gateway and enter the followi ng command:
# cd $PRIME_NETWORK_HOME/Main
# dmctl status
If you see the following in the output, CCM is installed and running.

• Verify the port to be used. 8043 is the secure HTTP port enabled by default for Change and
Configuration Management web client. However, you can still use port 8080 to launch the Change
and Configuration Management GUI. To do so, you must manually enable it using thi s co mm and:
# cd $NCCM_HOME/scripts/
# ./nccmHTTP.csh enable
# dmctl stop
# dmctl start
