Installing the Solaris Agent
This section details the commands you enter and the subsequent output that is
displayed when you install the Cisco Security Agent on Solaris systems.
Note See the similarly titled Appendix A in the User Guide for information on a Solaris
agent utility which allows you to manually poll to CSA MC and perform other
tasks.
When you download the Cisco Security Agent kit from CSA MC, do the
following to unpack and install it. (Note that you can put the downloaded tar file
in any temp directory. Do not put it in the opt directory, for example, as you may
then experience problems with the installation.)
Step 1 You must be super user on the system to install the agent package.
$ su
Step 2 Untar the agent kit.
# tar xf
CSA-Test_Mode_Server_V5.2.0.265-sol-setup-f734064be5a448b88e2a2786
7059113c.tar
Step 3 Install the agent package.(Use the command listed below when you install. This
command forces the installation to use a package administration file to check the
system for the required OS software agent dependencies. If the required
dependencies are not present, such as the "SUNWlibCx" library, the install
aborts.)
# pkgadd -a CSCOcsa/reloc/cfg/admin -d .
[Output:]
The following packages are available:
1 CSCOcsa CSAagent
(sun4u) 5.2.0.15
Step 4 Select the correct package or press enter to unpack all current packages.
Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process
all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]:
[Output:]
Processing package instance <CSCOcsa> from </space/user>
The install now displays the Cisco copyright and prompts you to continue the
installation.
