Chapter 2 Installing Cisco MNM

Performing a New Installation of Cisco MNM

Setting Up IP and Remote User Access Files

After you have installed Solaris and added all hard drives, you need to edit files on the Management

server that contain data for IP networking and remote user access. See

Table 2-3 for instructions.

DNS Configurations

Use these steps to modify DNS configurations:

Step 1 Ask your IT administrator if DNS should be used. If yes, perform Steps 2 and 3. If no, perform Steps 4

and 5.

Step 2 If DNS should be used, the IT administrator must configure the hostname of your machine on the DNS

server.

Step 3 Add the valid DNS server and domain name in /etc/resolv.conf.

Step 4 If DNS should not be used, delete the /etc/resolve.conf file if it exists.

Step 5 Verify that the host’s entry in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file looks exactly like the following line:

hosts: files

Note If you change how DNS is configured after Cisco EMF is installed, you must uninstall and reinstall Cisco

EMF. For more information on DNS configurations, see the Cisco Element Management Framework

Task 6: Obtain a Cisco EMF License

To start Cisco EMF, you must have a valid license key file available. In a distributed configuration, the

license key is required on the Management server.

To obtain a required permanent license key file, do the following:

Ta b l e 2-3 IP Networking and Remote User Access Files

File Modification

/etc/defaultrouter Add the host name and IP address of the default

gateway router that provides network access

between remote users, network devices, and the

standalone system or the Management server.

/etc/default/login Add a # symbol at the front of the line that reads,

“CONSOLE = /dev/console” to comment out the

line. If you do not comment out this line, users

cannot log in to the machine remotely.

/etc/default/login Add the login accounts for all users accessing the

server by Telnet.

/etc/hosts Add the Presentation server’s host information.
