Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager Installation Prerequisites

Prior to installing the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager, you must before the following tasks:

• Installing the Cisco Element Manager Framework

• Hardware Configuration

Installing the Cisco Element Manager Framework

Version 3.2 of the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager must be used with Cisco EMF version 3.2 service pack 7 and patch 7.1. You must install and run the appropriate Cisco EMF version before you can install the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager. For more information, see the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and Administration Guide.

Hardware Configuration

Before you can use the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager to manage a particular Catalyst switch, you must configure the device. It is suggested that you perform hardware configuration prior to installing the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager. Depending on the software installed on the device, configure each device to be managed via the element manager according to the appropriate procedure, as follows:

• Configuration Procedures (Catalyst OS)

• Configuration Procedures (Hybrid OS)

• Configuration Procedures (Native IOS)

• Configuration Procedures (Linux OS)

Configuration Procedures (Catalyst OS)

These procedures are applicable only to switch instances running Catalyst OS only (no MSFC daughter card installed on the supervisor module).

You must configure the following prerequisites before the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager can manage a Catalyst switch:

• Setting the Supervisor Enable (Privileged Mode) Password

• Setting the IP Address of the Supervisor Engine

• Setting the Supervisor Telnet Password

• Configuring the Supervisor SNMP Server

• Enabling Supervisor SNMP Traps

To perform the procedures in this section, you must enter these commands through the console port on the supervisor engine of the Catalyst switch.

Setting the Supervisor Enable (Privileged Mode) Password

To set the supervisor enable password, follow these steps:

Step 1 Type enable to enter the enable mode:
switch> enableEnter password:

The system is asking for the existing enable password - enter the existing password or press Enter if there isn't one. The prompt changes to the privileged EXEC prompt (enable) as follows:
switch> (enable)

Step 2 Begin the enable password setting process as follows:
switch> (enable) set enablepass

Step 3 Follow the on-screen directives to enter the new password (press Enter for the old password if there isn't one yet):
Enter old password: <Enter or password>Enter new password: <new password>Retype new password: <new password>

Step 4 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

Setting the IP Address of the Supervisor Engine

To set the IP address for the supervisor engine on a Catalyst switch, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode as follows:
switch> enableEnter password: <password>switch> (enable)

Step 2 Define the IP address for the in-band management interface of the supervisor:
switch> (enable) set interface sc0 <ip_address> <netmask>

Step 3 (Optional) By default, this interface is assigned to VLAN 1. If the primary management port through which the Cisco EMF server is to manage the switch is already assigned to a different VLAN, set the VLAN for the interface as follows:
switch> (enable) set interface sc0 <vlan_id>

Step 4 If necessary, bring the in-band management interface up as follows:
switch> (enable) set interface sc0 up

Step 5 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

The Cisco EMF server should now be able to ping the supervisor engine address of the Catalyst switch.

Setting the Supervisor Telnet Password

To set the telnet password for management through the in-band management interface, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode as follows:
switch> enableEnter password: <password>switch> (enable)

Step 2 Begin the password setting process as follows:
switch> (enable) set enablepass

Step 3 Follow the on-screen directives to enter the new password (press Enter for the old password if there isn't one yet):
Enter old password:<Enter or password>Enter new password: <new password>Retype new password: <new password>

Step 4 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

A user should now be able to telnet to the supervisor engine from the Cisco EMF server, using the telnet <ip_address> command and the above password. All subsequent configuration can be performed through this telnet access, if desired.

Note <ip_address> is the IP address for the Catalyst switch as configured in the "Setting the IP Address of the Supervisor Engine" section

Configuring the Supervisor SNMP Server

If the supervisor SNMP server is not configured, you must perform this procedure.

To configure the supervisor SNMP server on the Catalyst switch, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode:
switch> enableEnter password: <password>switch> (enable)

Step 2 Set the SNMP read community string as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp community read-only <read community>

Step 3 Set the SNMP write community string as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp community read-write <write community>switch> (enable) set snmp community read-write-all <write community>

Step 4 In order to collect RMON Ethernet statistics, RMON data collection must be enabled in the CatOS agent (this is not required in Native IOS). To enable RMON collection, enter the following:
switch> (enable) set snmp rmon enable

Step 5 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

Enabling Supervisor SNMP Traps

If SNMP traps are not enabled on the supervisor, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode as follows:
switch> enableEnter password: <password>switch> (enable)

Step 2 Enable SNMP traps as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp trap enable all

Step 3 Set the SNMP server to send traps to the Cisco EMF server as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp trap <ip_address of Cisco EMF server> <read community>

Step 4 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

Configuration Procedures (Hybrid OS)

These procedures are applicable only to switch instances running Hybrid OS (Catalyst OS installed on the supervisor engine and IOS the MSFC).

You must configure the following prerequisites before the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager can manage a Catalyst switch.

A user should now be able to telnet to the supervisor engine from the Cisco EMF server, using the telnet <ip_address> command and the above password. All subsequent configuration can be performed through this telnet access, if desired.

Note <ip_address> is the IP address for the Catalyst switch as configured in the "Setting the IP Address of the Supervisor Engine" section.

Configuring the Supervisor SNMP Server

If the supervisor SNMP server is not configured, you must perform this procedure.

To configure the supervisor SNMP server on the Catalyst switch, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode:
switch> enableEnter password: <password>switch> (enable)

Step 2 Set the SNMP read community string as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp community read-only <read community>

Step 3 Set the SNMP write community string as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp community read-write <write community>switch> (enable) set snmp community read-write-all <write community>

Step 4 In order to collect RMON Ethernet statistics, RMON data collection must be enabled in the CatOS agent (this is not required in Native IOS). To enable RMON collection, enter the following:
switch> (enable) set snmp rmon enable

Step 5 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

Step 3 Set the SNMP server to send traps to the Cisco EMF server as follows:
switch> (enable) set snmp trap <ip_address of Cisco EMF server> <read community>

Step 4 Exit configuration mode as follows:
switch> (enable) exit

Setting the MSFC Enable Password

To set the MSFC enable password, follow these steps:

Step 1 Type session 15 to switch to the MSFC console and login (if necessary):
switch> session 15Trying Router-15...Connected to Router-15.Escape character is `^]'.
User Access Verification
Password: <Enter or password>

The prompt changes to the MSFC management console prompt:
Router>

Tip If the session 15 command fails, the supervisor module either does not have an Multilayer Switching Feature Card installed or the MSFC boot image/configuration is damaged in some fashion. In this case, the switch is operating in pure Catalyst OS mode and none of the following configuration options are possible. While the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager will detect and partially manage a switch running Catalyst OS only, the full configuration capabilities of the EMS are not available in this mode. Consult the appropriate Catalyst Switch Configuration Guides for more information on installing the MSFC or configuring/recovering the MSFC boot information.

Step 2 Type enable to enter the enable mode:
Router> enable

The prompt changes to the privileged EXEC prompt (#) as follows:
Router#

Step 3 Enter the configure terminal command to enter configuration mode:
Router# configure terminalEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.Router(config)#

Step 4 Set the enable password as follows:
Router(config)# enable secret <password>

Step 5 Exit configuration mode as follows:
Router(config)# exitRouter#

Setting the IP Address of the MSFC

To set the IP address for the Catalyst switch, follow these steps:

Step 1 From the MSFC console, enter configuration mode as follows:
Router> enablePassword: <password>

Step 2 Enter the configure terminal command to enter configuration mode:
Router# configure terminalEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.Router(config)#

Step 3 The IP address of the MSFC is typically defined through the management VLAN specified in the assignment of the supervisor module address (see the "Setting the IP Address of the Supervisor Engine" section). Enter the VLAN interface configuration mode as follows:
Router(config)# interface vlan <vlan_id>Router(config-if)#

where <vlan_id> is the same identifier as specified in the supervisor module interface definition.

Step 4 Enter the IP address and netmask as follows:
Router(config-if)# ip address <ip_address> <netmask>

Step 5 Exit configuration mode and interface configuration mode as follows:
Router(config-if)# exitRouter(config)# exitRouter#

The Cisco EMF server should now be able to ping the Catalyst switch.

Note The above configuration assumes that the MSFC management is to be performed through the same in-band network that is used by the supervisor module. If a separate interface that is exclusively managed by the MSFC is to be used, set the MSFC IP address according to the instructions in "Setting the IP Address of the Switch."

Setting the MSFC Telnet Password

To verify that the Catalyst switch accepts telnet sessions, enter the telnet <ip_address> command from the Cisco EMF server:
telnet <ip_address>

Note <ip_address> is the IP address for the Catalyst switch as configured in the "Setting the IP Address of the MSFC" section.

If there is no response, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter configuration mode as follows:
Router> enablePassword: <password>

Step 2 Enter the configure terminal command to enter configuration mode:
Router# configure terminalEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.Router(config)#

Step 3 Configure the Telnet session as follows:

Mounting a Remote CD-ROM Drive

To install software onto a system that does not have its own CD-ROM drive, you need to mount the CD on the remote system and then export the device to make it accessible over the network. To mount a remote CD-ROM drive, follow these steps:

Step 1 Insert the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive on the remote host.

Step 2 Log in as superuser on the remote host. Enter /usr/bin/ps -ef | grep vold to verify that the volume manager is running.

When the Volume Manager is running, you see a message similar to this one:
root 591 1 0 Feb 26 ? 0 :01 /usr/sbin/vold

Step 3 If you do not see a message similar to the one shown in Step 2, start the Volume Manager by entering the following:
/etc/rc2.d/S92volmgt start

Step 4 Export the CD-ROM device from the remote host as follows:

a. When they are not already running, start the NFS-related daemons by entering the following:
/usr/lib/nfs/nfsd 8/usr/lib/nfs/mountd

b. To share the mount point from the remote host, enter the following:
share -F nfs -o ro /cdrom/cdrom0

c. To verify that this host has now made the CD-ROM drive accessible, enter the following:
share

The listing displayed includes the /cdrom mount point.

Step 5 Mount the remote CD-ROM on the local host (from where the installation is to take place) as follows:

a. To create a mount point when none exists already, enter the following:
mkdir /mnt/cdfiles

b. To mount the remote directory, enter the following:
mount -r <remote-host> : /cdrom/cdrom0 /mnt/cdfiles

Note Replace the <remote-host> with the host name of the remote device.

The contents of the CD-ROM are visible under the /mnt/cdfiles mount point.

Installing the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager Server Using eminstall

Note The following procedure assumes that a valid Cisco EMF server is installed and running. Refer to the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and Administration Guide for further details.

To install the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager using eminstall, follow these steps:

Step 1 Ensure that the following installation prerequisites have been met on the system:

•Cisco EMF 3.2 Service Pack 7 and Patch 7.1 successfully installed

•Cisco EMF started on the server (cemf start command)

•Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager Version 3.2 package has been download from Cisco's website or is available on CD-ROM

Note For additional information regarding Cisco EMF upgrade and the cemf start command, see the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and Administration Guide.

Note For instructions on downloading the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager software package from the Cisco website and untarring the tar file, see the associated readme file.

Step 2 On the Cisco EMF server host, log in as superuser.

Step 3 Perform one of the following:

•Insert the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager CD-ROM and change the directory into the CD-ROM area by entering the following:
cd /cdrom/cdrom0

•Navigate to the directory where the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager Version 3.2 installation script exists.

Step 4 To run the install script, enter the following:
./eminstall

The following menu appears:
INSTALL PACKAGE================
1) CCSM V3.2 Server Package2) CCSM V3.2 Server Package Upgrade - Not Installed "CSCO6576m"3) CCSM V3.2 Client Package - Incompatible type "c"4) CCSM V3.2 Client Package Upgrade - Not Installed "CSCO6576c"
q) Quit
Which package do you wish to install? (Def:q) [?,q]
You must install the server package (option 1) on the same host as the Cisco EMF server. If you are using Cisco EMF in the client/server mode, then you must install the client package (option 3) on each host running the Cisco EMF client.

Because the example shown in Step 4 is from a host where the Cisco EMF server package was installed, Option 3 indicates an error "Incompatible type c," which means that you cannot install the client package on this host.

Options 2 or 4 are available only if you are upgrading a currently installed Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager to a newer version. See Chapter 3, "Upgrading Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager," for more information.

Step 5 Select the installation you require. The utility performs the appropriate installation.

A confirmation prompt displays.

Step 6 Provide the appropriate confirmation for the selected installation option at the prompt. An entry of "y" indicates yes and the installation process commences. An entry of "n" indicates no and cancels the installation process.

Note If a Cisco EMF session is currently running, the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager installation process automatically closes all Cisco EMF windows.

As installation of each package takes place, the following displays:
Installation of <package name> was successful.
At the completion of the installation, the following displays:
The option install "installation option" was completed successfully.
Step 7 When the installation is complete, exit the CD-ROM area as necessary by entering the following at the command prompt:
cd /

Step 8 Remove the CD-ROM as necessary by entering the following at the command prompt:
eject cdrom

Step 9 Ensure that the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager was installed correctly by starting a Cisco EMF session and entering the following:
CEMF_ROOT/bin/cemf session

Replace CEMF_ROOT with the name of the directory where Cisco EMF is installed.

Step 10 Log on with your username and password in the displayed login window.

Step 11 From the Cisco EMF Launchpad, select the Viewer application. If the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager was installed correctly, the Deployment sub-menu from a container in the Physical tree will contain a CSM/7600 item.

The Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager is now ready to use. See the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager User Guide for information on using the Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager features available.
