Installing Cisco IP Manager is optional and you can install it with Cisco Wireless Manager to provide configuration management features.

Refer to the individual installation guides of each application for information on how to install them.

For installing CEMF 3.1, refer to the CEMF 3.1 Users' Guide.

Installing the Cisco Wireless Manager Server


Note   Cisco IP Manager is required for template-based configuration of Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers. You can select the default option for most installation prompts by pressing Enter.


Step 1   Start CEMF 3.1 by entering:

/opt/cemf/bin/cemf start

Step 2   Log in as root user.

Step 3   Insert the Cisco Wireless Manager CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

Step 4   Go to the Wireless Manager package directory (/cdrom/cdrom0/WirelessMgr) and enter:

./weminstall -server


Tip The Cisco Wireless Manager installation script checks the available disk space. If not enough disk space is available, cancel the installation and ensure that adequate disk space is available before running the installation script.

The installation script installs the Cisco Wireless Manager Performance Package (CSCOPWemm), and the Cisco Wireless Manager Server Package (CSCOWemm).

Step 5   Enter the full path to the directory where you have installed the Broadband Modem Troubleshooter (default is /opt).

Step 8   Enter the name of the browser that you want to use (default is Netscape).

Step 9   Enter the hostname/IP address of the machine where CiscoView is installed (default is local host).

Step 10   Enter the port number that CiscoView uses.

If you have not setup CiscoView on any particular port number, press Enter to select the default http port number.

Refer to the CiscoView documentation for more details.

Step 11   Enter the directory that contains the Baseline Report files.

Step 12   Enter the full path with filename of the report viewer (default is /opt/cemf/bin/netscape).


Note   Baseline Report files contain basic configuration reports on uBR and subscriber unit objects. You can choose any GUI based text file to view baseline reports.

Upgrading the Cisco Wireless Manager Server

You can upgrade an existing installation of the Cisco Wireless Manager server. By doing so, you will not lose any data that you used in the previous setup.

If not enough disk space is available, cancel the installation, and ensure that adequate disk space is available before running the installation script. When you upgrade, your existing data is backed up, so ensure that you have enough disk space in the CEMFROOT/backup directory.


Step 1   Start CEMF by entering:

/opt/cemf/bin/cemf start

Step 2   Log in as root user.

Step 3   Insert the Cisco Wireless Manager CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
