Installing the Cisco Service Selection Dashboard


UNIX Installation

This section describes how to install the Cisco Service Selection Dashboard (Cisco SSD) in a UNIX environment.

Java Installation

To install the Java Runtime Environment (JRE):

Step 2   If there is a previous installation of the JRE and the old directory contains files you want to keep, rename the old directory.

Step 3   In a shell window, enter the following commands:

% chmod a+x jre116-solaris2-sparc.bin
% ./jre116-solaris2-sparc.bin

Step 4   To recover disk space, delete the jre116-solaris2-sparc.bin file after installation is complete.
