Chapter 2 Installing Cisco MNM

Performing a New Installation of Cisco MNM

The installation begins. Wait until the installation is complete.

This complete the installation procedure for Cisco EMF Service Packs 7, 7.1, and 7.2

Installing the Cisco EMF SSH Add-On Package

To enable SSH support on Cisco MNM running on Solaris 8 or 10, install the CEMF Crypto Add-on Package by following these steps:

Note We recommend installing SSH on Cisco MNM and Cisco VSPT before installing on

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch so that you can use the element managers to monitor the installation process on the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch and other managed components.

Step 1 Download the CEMF Crypto Add-on Package Software and the CEMF Crypto Add-on Package Installation Guide available from the network management download page at

http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cemf-addon-3des

Step 2 Under the heading, “Cisco Element Management Systems,” click CEMF Strong Cryptographic Software.

Note Authorization is required for downloading the cryptographic software. If you do not have authorization, you are automatically redirected to an authorization request page.

Step 3 Follow the installation instructions in the CEMF Crytpo Add-on Package Installation Guide.

Note Make sure the entry of SSH exists in the /etc/services file on the machine where Cisco MNM is installed.

Caution Using the # character in the /etc/motd banner may cause problems in the SSH connectivity. The # character might interfere in the scripts used in Cisco MNM. If you encounter problems using SSH with the installation of the CEMF Crypto Add-on package, and the SSH entry in the /etc/services file, try removing the motd banner.

Caution Do not use special characters, such as %$#@&, in the SSH password because the CEMF Crypto Add-on package does not support these special characters for the SSH password.
