Accessing the ACNS Software on the Content Engine

The Content Engine uses the Cisco Application and Content Networking System (ACNS) software for configuration and deployment of an Application and Content Network (ACN). The ACNS software includes both a graphical user interface, accessible through a web browser, and a command-line interface (CLI), either of which can be used to configure the software. For more information about accessing and configuring the ACNS software, refer to the Cisco ACNS Software Deployment and Configuration Guide that is appropriate for the version of ACNS software running on your Content Engine.

To use the ACNS software CLI, you must connect to the Content Engine either through a Telnet session from a PC, or by connecting a PC or terminal to the Content Engine console port.

Connecting a PC to the Content Engine

To access the ACNS software on the Content Engine through the console port on the Content Engine, you must connect the Content Engine to a terminal or PC. The console cable and adapter required for this connection are included with the Content Engine.

To connect to the Content Engine using a PC, the PC must have some type of terminal emulation software installed. The terminal emulation software should be configured with the following parameters:

9600 baud

8 data bits

No parity bits

1 stop bit
