Perform Initial Software Configuration

•Perform Initial Software Configuration

•
•	When you receive the CMTS, the JUNOSg software is preinstalled and is ready to be
•	configured after the CMTS successfully boots. The primary copy of the software is installed
•	on a nonrotating flash disk and a backup copy is included on the CMTS’s rotating hard disk
•	on the Hard Disk Module. When the CMTS boots, it first attempts to start the image from the
•	flash disk. If the boot from the flash disk fails, the CMTS attempts to boot from the hard disk.
•
•	Before you configure the CMTS, you need the following information:
•
•	! Name the CMTS will use on the network
•
•	! Domain name the CMTS will use
•
•	! IP address and prefix length information for the Ethernet interface
•
•	! IP address of a default CMTS
•
•	! IP address of a DNS server
•
•	! Password for the root user
•
•	To configure the software, follow this procedure:
•
•	1. After a successful connection is made between the PC attached to the serial port of the
•		Chassis Control Module and the CMTS, the terminal emulation screen on your PC will
•		display a banner and prompt you for a login username. Log in as the root user. There is
•		no password.
•
•	2.	Start the CLI.
•
•		root# cli
•		root@>
•	3.	Enter configuration mode.
