Network Registrar Requirements
Before you install BACC, be aware of these Cisco Network Registrar requirements:
•We recommend that you use Network Registrar 6.1.2.3 or higher with BACC 2.7.
•A Network Registrar DHCP server must be installed on a computer with Solaris 8 or 9.
•In a failover deployment of BACC, you must configure two redundant DHCP servers for failover.
•After you install BACC, ensure that Network Registrar scopes are configured to reflect failover capability and the topology of the network on which BACC is installed.
For more information about configuring failover on Network Registrar servers, see the Network Registrar User’s Guide.
Hardware Requirements
A BACC installation requires these servers:
•A regional distribution unit (RDU). This is the primary server in a BACC deployment. It contains the central BACC database and manages the generation of configurations.
•One or more device provisioning engines (DPE). A Cisco device provisioning engine caches provisioning information and handles all configuration requests including the transfer of configuration files to devices. It is integrated with the Cisco Network Registrar DHCP server to control the assignment of IP addresses. Multiple DPEs can communicate with a single DHCP server. DPEs include factory installed software that enables provisioning, but you must perform some initial set up.
Note The hardware installation procedures for the device provisioning engine are described in the following guides:
