1.A small to medium-sized deployment applies to a network environment with no more than eight active/standby pairs of Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches. The recommendations for the small to medium size deployment are based on Sun Sparc-based platforms with a single hard drive, and RAM size ranging from 2 GB to 8 GB.

2.A medium to large-sized deployment is supported by Sun Netra T2000 series or Sun Netra T5200 serires platforms.

Task 4: Ensure That the Sun Solaris 10 Operating System Is Installed

	Cisco MNM machines must have the Sun Solaris 10 operating system with CDE 1.3 installed. If the Sun
	Solaris 8 or 10 operating system is not already installed, install it according to instructions provided by
	the manufacturer.
	Also install the latest J2SE Solaris 10 patch cluster, available at this URL:
	http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access
Note	• The Solaris 8 operating system is now at end of sale; therefore, migration to Solaris 10 is required.
	The Cisco MNM Release 2.8(1) does not support Solaris 8.
	• If you prepare to install the Solaris 10 Operating System, install the Solaris 10 OEM Distribution
	kernel 11/06. Do not install the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Solaris 10 Jumpstart or the
	Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch OS recommended patches.
	• If Cisco MNM coexists with LMS 3.1 Common Services (CiscoView) on a Solaris 10 Operating
	System, the version of the Solaris Operating System must be the November 2006 release or higher,
	and the minimum recommended cluster patch levels are those released April 17, 2007.

Task 5: Make System Configuration Modifications

Two kinds of system modifications are required after the Solaris operating system and set up disk drives are installed:

1.Setting Up IP and Remote User Access Files

2.DNS Configurations
