Before installing CWSI Campus, you need to make sure your system has been set up properly. Perform the steps in the following sequence:
1. Verifying System and Network Requirements
3. Removing Previous Versions of CWSI Campus or CWSI
4. Installing Resource Manager Essentials
5. Determining Your Seed Device
For CWSI Campus system and network requirements, see the chapter "Before You Begin."
Install the browser that you will be using, if you have not already installed it. Make sure to launch the browser at least once to confirm the license registration.
If a previous version of CWSI Campus or CWSI is installed, you might want to remove it. This step is optional. Reinstalling or upgrading CWSI Campus without removing previous versions will give you the option of preserving the CWSI database and data files.
To remove previous versions of CWSI Campus or CWSI, use the uninstall command as follows:
# cd / # /usr/CSCOcwsi/bin/uninstall.sh
Install the Essentials application using the CD provided. Follow the instructions in the chapter "Installing Essentials."
During the installation, you will be prompted for a seed device. The seed device is the device from which you start the discovery process. The seed device can be any Cisco device with the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) enabled (for example, a Catalyst 5000 switch) and a valid read SNMP community string.
For LANE discovery to work, the software versions shown in Table 3-2 are needed on these devices.
| Device | Version |
|---|---|
Cisco IOS Release 11.2(8) | |
Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10) | |
NMP (2.4.3)/ATM 3.2(5) | |
2.2(2) |
The seed device you supply during the CWSI Campus installation is required for the product to operate correctly. Verify that the seed device meets the following requirements before you install CWSI Campus:
During the CiscoView installation portion of the CWSI Campus installation, you will be prompted to select the device packages (.pkg files) you need based on the devices you plan to use. Make sure you know the types of devices you plan on using and managing in your network.
You can install CWSI Campus on a local disk or on a network-mounted Network File System (NFS) disk to which you have root access. Follow the instructions in this section to install CWSI Campus and to set paths and environments.
To install CWSI Campus, follow these steps:
Step 1 Become superuser by entering su and the root password at the command prompt, or log in as root.
Step 2 Insert the CWSI Campus CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
Step 3 Mount the CWSI Campus CD-ROM by entering the following command:
# /usr/sbin/mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom
Step 4 Enter the following commands:
# cd /cdrom # ./setup.sh
Step 5 You are prompted to select the optional components that you want to install.
1 CSCOcv CiscoView 4.x
2 CSCOtd TrafficDirector
3 CSCOatmd AtmDirector
Select optional components you wish to install ('all' or 'none' to install all or none of these components). (default: all) [q]:
Step 6 Enter the appropriate option, then press Return.
Step 7 Enter information or press Return for the default response (in square brackets) to the following questions:
Enter seed device name or IP address: Enter full netscape browser executable pathname: Enter TCP port number to use for DB: [8000]
The values you enter or confirm are displayed.
Step 8 Enter y to accept these values.
At the prompt, enter the number corresponding to the device files you want to install. To install all the device files, press Return.
If you chose to install the TrafficDirector and AtmDirector applications, they are installed automatically in the /usr/CSCOcwsi directory.
To complete your installation, follow these steps:
Step 1 Type q to exit the setup menu, which is redisplayed when the installation is complete.
Step 2 Remove the CD-ROM and store it in a safe place.
If the Read community strings in your network are different from the default "public," you will need to edit the communities file after installing and before starting CWSI Campus and discovering your network. The communities file is named communities.dat and is located in the usr/etc/cwsi directory.
Several of the CWSI Campus applications require additional software, which can be installed after the CWSI Campus installation.
Launch CWSI Campus using the following startup command:
/usr/CSCOcwsi/bin/cwsi
Launch the VlanDirector, AtmDirector, UserTracking, TrafficDirector, and CiscoView applications from the main CWSI Campus window.
If you have not installed a particular component (such as AtmDirector), that option is not available in the main CWSI Campus menu.
To remove CWSI Campus, use the uninstall command as follows:
# cd / # /usr/CSCOcwsi/bin/uninstall.sh
To add new devices to CiscoView, access Cisco Connection Online (CCO). Instructions on how to download additional devices for CiscoView using the cvinstall command are available on CCO or on the anonymous ftp server in the Network Management section of the Software Center. These instructions are also included in CiscoView Incremental Installation Quick Reference, which is on the Documentation CD.
To incrementally add device support from CCO, follow these steps:
Step 1 Download the device package files from CCO into the cv_pkgs directory.
Step 2 Untar the package by entering the following command:
# tar -xvf tar_filename
Step 3 Set your NMSROOT environment variable, as follows:
# setenv NMSROOT /usr/CSCOcwsi
Step 4 Go to the cv_pkgs directory by entering the following command:
# cd /cdrom/cv_pkgs
Step 5 To install the package, log in as root and enter the following command:
$NMSROOT/bin/cvinstall device_name.pkg
