Installing the Regional Distribution Unit

Install the RDU server on a Solaris 8 server that meets the requirements described in the "Hardware Requirements" section on page 1-2.

To install the RDU server, complete the steps described in the "Installation and Startup Process" section on page 2-2, then follow these steps:


Step 1 Click Next. The Home Directory Destination screen appears. The default directory is /opt/CSCObpr.

Step 2 Accept the default directory or enter a new directory. You can use the Browse button to select a new directory.

Step 3 Click Next. The installation program displays the Create Directory dialog box. Click Yes to continue. The Data Directory Destination screen appears. The default directory is /var/CSCObpr.

Step 4 Accept the default directory or enter a new directory. You can use the Browse button to select a new directory.


Note By default, the installation program installs the data directory (BPR_DATA) on a different directory than the home directory (BPR_HOME). Cisco Systems recommends that the data directory be on a different physical disk than the home directory; for example /var/disk0/CSCObpr. However, you can install the data directory on the same disk as the home directory.

The directory specified becomes the top-level directory under which the installation program creates a number of subdirectories; for example, /var/disk0/CSCObpr/rdu/db.


Step 5 Click Next. The installation program displays the Create Directory dialog box. Click Yes to continue. The Database Transaction Logs screen appears.

Step 6 Enter the pathname for the directory in which you want the transaction logs (BPR_DBLOG) installed. The default directory is /var/CSCObpr.

Cisco Systems recommends that you locate the database transaction logs directory on the fastest disk on the system; for example, /var/disk1/CSCObpr. You also should ensure that the disk has 1 GB of space available.

The directory specified becomes the top-level directory under which the installation program creates a number of subdirectories.


Step 7 Accept the default directory or enter a new directory. You can use the Browse button to select a new directory.

Step 8 Click Next. The installation program displays the Create Directory dialog box. Click Yes to continue.

The Regional Distribution Unit Host/Port screen appears.

Step 9 Accept the default listening port number or enter a new port number. The default port is 49187.


Note The installation program obtains the IP address of the RDU automatically. You do not need to enter this value.



Caution If you change the default listening port value, ensure that the new value does not conflict with any existing port assignments. Also, ensure that you configure all DPEs and Network Registrar servers with the correct RDU port number. See the Broadband Provisioning Registrar Administrator's Guide for information about configuring the DPE and Network Registrar extensions.

Step 10 Click Next. The Shared Secret Password screen appears.

Step 11 Enter and confirm the shared secret password.


Note The RDU, DPEs, and Network Registrar extension points all use the same shared secret. This is a character string, or token, that is used to authenticate communication.
