Performing a New Installation of Cisco MNM
Task 7: Install CiscoView 6.1.8 on a Solaris 10 Operating System
CiscoView is a graphical device management tool based on the Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) that provides real-time views of networked Cisco devices. Cisco MNM uses
CiscoView to configure and monitor the Cisco IP Transfer Point LinkExtender (Cisco ITP-L) and the
LAN switch (Cisco Catalyst 2900, 5500, and 6509) devices through a CiscoView server.
Note
Cisco ITP-L replaces the term Cisco Signaling Link Terminal (SLT).
CiscoView is optional; install it only if you want to manage the Cisco ITP-L or LAN switches from Cisco
MNM.
Install CiscoView 6.1.8 before installing Cisco MNM 2.8(1) so that you can identify the CiscoView
server IP address that must be entered when you install Cisco MNM. You can install CiscoView locally
on the Cisco MNM workstation or on a remote server.
Use these steps to install CiscoView 6.1.8:
Step 1
Insert the LMS 3.1 DVD that comes with your Cisco MNM package in the DVD-ROM drive.
Note
•
CiscoView ships as part of LMS 3.1 with MGC Node Manager. Only the CiscoView part of LMS is
provided. To obtain licenses for other LMS features, order LMS 3.1 from the Cisco.com website.
•
If your machine does not have a DVD-ROM drive, see
Table 2-5
in the Troubleshooting section for
steps on mounting a DVD-ROM drive from a remote machine.
Step 2
Write down the CiscoView server IP address, which is needed for Task 9 when you install Cisco MNM.
Step 3
Run the installation setup script by entering:
#
sh setup.sh
or
#
./setup.sh
Step 4
Press Enter to read the license agreement.
Step 5
Enter Y to accept the license agreement and proceed with the installation.
Note
•
Error messages appear if you do not have required server or client patches. Warning messages
appear if you do not have recommended server or client patches.
•
CiscoView must use the default port number 1741. Do not modify this number during installation.
Step 6
Select one of the following installation modes:
a.
Typical, to select the components and install them in the default location (/opt/CSCOpx). This is the
default installation mode.
b.
Custom, to select optional components, customize the settings, and specify the location.
Step 7
Select CiscoView 6.1.8 to begin the installation. When the installation is complete, the following
messages display:
