This chapter provides information about how to use the Setup program to configure your host system for Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0.
System configuration for Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0 is accomplished using the Setup program. You must run the Setup program when you start the system for the first time.
To get started, from the directory where Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0 software files are located, use the command:
./setup
•Once you have committed changes (Commit changes (y/n): y), it cannot be aborted by entering Ctrl-c.
•All password values in Setup must contain alphanumeric characters only. Special characters have different meanings in the UNIX shell and should not be used for passwords.
•Device Name values may contain only: period (.), underscore (_), hyphen (-), and alphanumeric characters.
•Group Name values may contain only: underscore (_) and alphanumeric characters.
The following sample shows the standard set of prompts for Internal Directory mode:

Warning: setup cannot be aborted while committing changes.
Commit changes (y/n):
Configuration Engine login name/password: Define the administrator account and password for accessing Cisco Configuration Engine GUI.
Enter internal LDAP server password: Define internal-directory-account password for the two internal administrative users: dcdadmin and cdauser1.
Enter internal LDAP server port number: Define the port number that should be used by LDAP server. Default value is 389.
•Password type refers to ASCII characters that are between the octal values 040 (space) and 176 (~) inclusive.
•Alphanumeric type refers to alphabetic and numeric characters plus the underscore (_) symbol.
Enter SMTP server (hostname.domainname or IP address): Specifies the SMTP server hostname or IP address to enable email notification service. The SMTP server is used to send out email. This parameter is optional. If you do not wish to provide email service, leave it blank.
Enable cryptography (crypto) between Event Gateway(s)/Config Server and device(s) (y/n): This option enables crypto (SSL) operation. The web server listens on TCP port 443, and responds to https requests (for example, https://machine/config/login.html). The event gateway listens to ports 11012, 11014, and so on (depending on the number of gateways started). All data between your host and the far end is encrypted. The SSL protocol (combined with valid certificates) ensures that your host is authenticated by the far end. In order to complete SSL configuration, valid certificates need to be placed on your host. See Section "Configuring SSL Certificates" section for details. For testing, after configuration open an SSL connection to each port (openssl s_client -connect hostname:port). This should be done for both enable and disable cases.
If disabling crypto operation, the rest of the prompts in this section are omitted.
Enable plaintext operation between Config Server and devices/GUI administration (y/n): This option enables plaintext config server operation. In addition to listening on TCP port 443 for crypto connections, the web server also listens on TCP port 80 for plaintext connections, responding to HTTP requests (for example, http://machine/config/login.html). If crypto is disabled, plaintext between Config Server and devices/GUI administration is enabled.
Enable plaintext operation between Event Gateway and devices (y/n): This prompt enables/disables the prompt: number of Event Gateways that will be started with plaintext operation, which is in Event service settings (see "Event Service Settings" section).
Port number for http web access: Specify the port number to be used for http web access. The default is 80.
Enter port number for https web access: Specify the port number to be used for secure http web access. The default is 443.

Event Gateway application parameter(s) for NSM: Specifies the application namespace to be used in NameSpace Mapper for resolving mapping. The default namespace used is config.
Event Gateway debug log: Send Event Gateway debug output to the log file: /var/log/CNSCE/evtgateway.
Log file rotation timer (minutes, 0 = no rotation): The time period to check whether event gateway log files should be log-rotated in current working directory. If the value is 0 then the event log files are not log-rotated. The default value is 2 minutes if event gateway debug logging is turned on and 5 minutes if event gateway debug logging is turned off. Valid values are 0 to 1440.
Max log file size (Kbytes): The file size above which log-rotation starts. The default is 3072 Kbytes. Valid values are 1 to 2097152 (Kbytes).
Log backup (y/n)? Indicates whether the event gateway log-rotated file should be copied to the backup directory /var/log/CNSCE/evt_gateway/backup. Default is y; log files in /var/log/CNS are tarred, time stamped and moved into the backup directory.
Number of Event Gateways that will be started with crypto operation: Specify the number of Event Gateway processes that should be started in crypto mode; for example, the number of Event Gateways that communicate with devices using SSL. Note: that if crypto operation is disabled, this prompt is also disabled.
Number of Event Gateways that will be started with plaintext operation: Specify the number of Event Gateway processes that should be started in plaintext mode; for example, the number of Event Gateway that communicate with devices without using SSL. Note that the total number of Event Gateways, whether or not it is started for crypto operation, should not exceed 11.
Event CNS Bus Network Parameter: Specify the outbound network interface of host system for publishing events. It can be an IP address, the name of the local network interface, a hostname, or multicast address.
Event CNS Bus Service Parameter: Specify the UDP port used for publishing and listening to events among Event Bus daemons. Dedicating a port for communication between a host system and its managing devices can reduce traffic caused by listening to other unrelated events. The default is 7500.
Enter CNS Event Bus Daemon Parameter: Specify the TCP port that should be used for the TCP connections between Event Bus daemon and its client applications. The default is 7500.
Enable CNS Event Bus routing daemon logging (y/n)? Enable or disable Event Bus logging. The default is disable. Log file can be found at /var/log/CNSCE/rvrd/rvrd.log.

Alternative username/password prompts for device using TACACS/RADIUS: When a device is authenticated by TACACS+ or RADIUS servers, the username/password prompts which are returned to the Telnet users are configurable. The alternative username/password prompts allow you to choose your own set of username/password prompts. If no inputs are entered, the default username/password prompts Username: and Password: are assumed.
Most of the prompts in External Directory mode are identical to those for the Internal Directory mode except for the introduction of the External Directory mode settings and sample schema.
In the External Directory mode, the system is configured to contact the external directory storage for device information. Certain information that makes up the schema of the external directory such as attribute names (in the device class) and container locations must be entered during Setup.
To simplify the inputs, you can choose to use the predefined sample schema and construct your external directory accordingly.
Note No prompts are issued to set up FTP and TFTP File Servers in External Directory Mode as these services are always disabled in this mode. If you had previously set up FTP and/or TFTP in Internal Directory Mode, after switching to External Directory Mode the services will have been disabled. You will need to rerun Setup in Internal Directory Mode again to re-enable them.
The sample shows the prompts for External Directory mode where the sample schema is enabled.

Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0 supports start/stop for the following components:
•http/tomcat (webserver): /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd {start|stop}
•IMGW: /etc/rc.d/init.d/Imgw {start|stop}
•Event gateway: /etc/rc.d/init.d/EvtGateway {start|stop} [port number]
•Event gateway crypto: /etc/rc.d/init.d/EvtGatewayCrypto {start|stop} [port number]
Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0 includes two new scripts to handle start and stop components. Some servers have dependency to other servers, therefore the shutdown and startup script is not provided for these types of servers. For example, Tibco has to be up for http/tomcat, if Tibco is shutdown, and brought up again, the webservers, httpd and tomcat, that rely on Tibco will have connection problem, therefore Tibco restart is not supported.
•ce_startup - a script to combine all the start up scripts for different components.
This script is located in: ${CISCO_CE_INSTALL_ROOT}/CSCOcnsie/bin/
-all: default option that bring up all the services.
-http: includes Apache, Tomcat, config server, image server, web service.
-imgw: start imgw server.
-eventgw: event gateway including event gateway crypto. This script should read the setup data file, varsetup.dat, for the user input enable_ssl, if the answer if y (yes), this script should run EvtGatewayCrypto; otherwise run EvetGateway.
-monitor: Configuration Engine Monitor scripts.
•ce_shutdown - a script to combine all the stop scripts for different components.
This script is located in: ${CISCO_CE_INSTALL_ROOT}/CSCOcnsie/bin/
-all: default option that bring down all the services.
-http: includes Apache, Tomcat, config server, image server, webservice
-imgw: imgw server.
-evtgw: event gateway including event gateway crypto.
-monitor: Configuration Engine Monitor scripts.
Register the system in DNS, using the system hostname as its DNS name.
Events are sent to the router with the hostname as the identifier, not the IP address. Consequently, if your host system is not registered in DNS, the routers are not able to find it and cannot download configurations.
To configure SSL, you must generate a valid certificate:
Step 1 On any UNIX host that has OpenSSL installed, enter the following commands:
% openssl genrsa -out server.key 1024
% chown root:root server.key
% chmod 400 server.key
% openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr
Step 2 Ensure that the Common Name is the fully qualified name of your host, for example: www.company.com
Step 3 Send the file server.csr to the Certificate Authority for signing.
Assuming that the signed file is server.crt, then the files server.key and server.crt are transferred (FTP) into your host as part of its setup process.
Step 1 Go to a different computer and bring up a web browser.
The Cisco Configuration Engine supports:
•Netscape 5.0 and above.
•Internet Explorer 6.0 and above.
•FireFox 1.0 and above.
Step 2 On the net-site window enter the URL for the Cisco Configuration Engine.
For example: http://<ip_address>
where: <ip_address> is the IP address you entered during host system configuration. You can use the hostname if the name has been defined and registered within your DNS domain.
Note If you have enabled encryption in the Setup program, you must use https://<ip_address>.
The Cisco Configuration Engine login page appears.
Step 3 Enter the ConfigService AdminID and Password that you entered during host system configuration.
The Home page appears.
If you have reached the Cisco Configuration Engine Home page (Figure 2-1), you have verified the successful installation on the Cisco Configuration Engine.
Figure 2-1 Internal Directory Mode Home Page
If the image on your hard disk has become corrupted, but the disk is operational (you can restart from the hard disk), simply reimage your system by uninstalling the Cisco Configuration Engine software, then reinstall the Cisco Configuration Engine, 2.0 software.
