Provisioning
This chapter describes basic hardware and service provision considerations such as system environment
requirements, physical infrastructure checklists, IP service considerations, and system upgrade
procedures for the Cisco AS5800.
For details on the following, refer to the information on preparing for installation in the Cisco AS5800
Access Server Hardware Installation Guide, available online at
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_serv/as5800/hw_inst/
• Safety recommendations
• Site requirements such as shelf specifications, space, chassis heights, rack types, mounting options,
power and plant wiring
• Site logs for monitoring installation progress, or recording upgrade history
Note House the Cisco AS5800 in an area with constant temperature and humidity. Cooler
environments are ideal for stabilizing hardware temperatures. Humidity should be high
enough to prevent accumulation of static electricity, yet low enough to prevent
condensation. Relative humidity up to 90% is acceptable.
Setting Up Basic IP Modem Services
This section describes how to set up and provision basic modem IP services using a Cisco AS5800
network access server. It is tailored for network engineers who work with dialup access technologies,
and assumes the reader is Cisco certified or familiar with Cisco IOS routers and technologies.
Corporate users and Internet service providers (ISP) install dialup services to facilitate e-mail,
e-commerce, and application/database access for employees, roaming sales personnel, household
consumers, and students. As a corporate user or ISP, you want to:
• Enable remote modem users to access IP backbone resources through the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN).
• Build an access network foundation that scales to support larger dial implementations for the future.
