Step 3 Enter the CTM server hostname or IP address and click OK.

Note Do not enter a hostname unless Domain Name System (DNS) is enabled in your network.

Step 4 By default, for security reasons you are prompted to change the password after you log in for the first time. Click Yes. The password complexity is configurable in the Control Panel > Security Properties pane. By default, the password must:

•Contain at least six characters, but not more than 12 characters.

•Contain at least two alphabetic characters (A-Z, a-z). Of the alphabetic characters, at least one must be uppercase and one must be lowercase.

•Contain at least one numeric character (0-9).

•Contain at least one special character (+ # % , . ; & !). The default special character set is TL1+UNIX.

•Allow a special character as the first or last character.

•Allow a numeric character as the first or last character.

•Not contain the username or any circular shift of the username. An uppercase letter and its corresponding lowercase letter are considered equivalent. For example, if the username is Arthur, the password cannot contain the string arthur, rthura, thurar, hurart, urarth, or rarthu.

•Differ from the old password by at least three characters. For example, if the old password is MikeBrady5!, the new password cannot be mikebrady5% because only the last character is different. However, the new password MikeBrady2!99 is acceptable because it differs from MikeBrady5! by three characters.

Step 5 Change the password; then, click OK.

If you want to add a CTM icon to the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) front panel or add a CTM entry to the CDE Workspace menu, check the appropriate check box(es): •Add Icon to CDE Front Panel •Add Entry to CDE Workspace Menu These options allow you to launch the CTM client without having to open a terminal or console window and invoke the ctmc-start command. If you choose either option, you might have to perform one of the following actions to see the changes: — Restart your CDE Window Manager — Log out of CDE; then, log back in — Reboot the system c. Click Next. Note If the destination directory that you specified is a new directory, you will receive the message "Specified directory does not exist, create it?" Click Yes. Note Do not specify any mount point as the target installation directory for the client installation, or the installation data might be lost when the workstation restarts. Step 5 At the Select Default Memory Configuration screen, specify the size of your network (small, medium, large, or high end). Click Next. Step 6 At the Launch Cisco Edge Craft screen, specify whether you want to install Cisco Edge Craft at the same time as the CTM client. If you choose to install Cisco Edge Craft it will be installed in the /opt/CiscoTransportManagerClient/CiscoEdgeCraft folder. Click Next. Note If your Cisco Edge Craft is bundled and installed with a CTM client, you cannot upgrade it with a standalone Cisco Edge Craft package. Note Cisco Edge Craft is an SNMP-based application. Verify that the machine performing the installation can reach the ONS 1530x devices through port UDP 161 before launching it. Step 7 At the CTM Group Information screen, enter the name of the UNIX group to which you want to assign administrator privileges. The default is the group name of the root user. You can uncheck the Ignore user-entered group name check box and enter the group name of your choice. After you specify the CTM group name, click Next. Note The group name must exist on the UNIX workstation in order for the CTM installation to proceed. The users that belong to the group must have the umask 002 command configured. Step 8 The Pre-Installation Summary screen shows the items that will be installed and the space that is required. Click Install. Step 9 The Install Complete screen summarizes the results of the installation. Click Done. Step 10 Enter the following commands to eject the CTM client installation CD: cd / eject cdrom Note If you do not choose to install Cisco Edge Craft in Step 6, you cannot install it manually during a second installation. Instead, if you decide to install Cisco Edge Craft later, you will need to uninstall the CTM client and then repeat the CTM client installation, this time checking the check box to install Cisco Edge Craft. 5.4.3 Requirements to Display the Online Help The online help for Cisco Edge Craft requires Adobe Acrobat Reader in your PATH environment variable. Tip If you cannot launch the online help, open a command prompt from another window and enter the xhost + command, providing the full pathname. Also, verify that the DISPLAY variable is set correctly. 5.5 Starting the CTM Client in Sun Solaris Step 1 At the console, enter one of the following commands, depending on the size of your network configuration: •If you are connecting to a small server, enter: ./ctmc-start -small •If you are connecting to a medium server, enter: ./ctmc-start -medium •If you are connecting to a large server, enter: ./ctmc-start -large •If you are connecting to a high-end server, enter: ./ctmc-start -highend Caution In the Bourne shell, if you enter ctmc-start to start the client and then execute Ctrl+C in the xterm window where the client was launched, the CTM client will terminate. Note The installation program creates a soft link on /usr/bin for ctmc-start. If the soft link is missing, enter <install_directory>/ctmc-start at the console. The following message appears: Starting Cisco Transport Manager client. Please wait. Wait 10 to 20 seconds for the CTM client application to start. Step 2 The first time you log in, enter the default username and password: Username: SysAdmin Password: Ctm123! Note The username and password are case sensitive. After you enter the password, the Password field displays a fixed-length string of 12 asterisks (), regardless of the actual length of the password. Step 3* Enter the CTM server hostname or IP address and click OK. Note Do not enter a hostname unless DNS is enabled in your network. Step 4 By default, for security reasons you are prompted to change the password after you log in for the first time. Click Yes. The password complexity is configurable in the Control Panel > Security Properties pane. By default, the password must: •Contain at least six characters, but not more than 12 characters. •Contain at least two alphabetic characters (A-Z, a-z). Of the alphabetic characters, at least one must be uppercase and one must be lowercase. •Contain at least one numeric character (0-9). •Contain at least one special character (+ # % , . ; & !). The default special character set is TL1+UNIX. •Allow a special character as the first or last character. •Allow a numeric character as the first or last character. •Not contain the username or any circular shift of the username. An uppercase letter and its corresponding lowercase letter are considered equivalent. For example, if the username is Arthur, the password cannot contain the string arthur, rthura, thurar, hurart, urarth, or rarthu. •Differ from the old password by at least three characters. For example, if the old password is MikeBrady5!, the new password cannot be mikebrady5% because only the last character is different. However, the new password MikeBrady2!99 is acceptable because it differs from MikeBrady5! by three characters. Step 5 Change the password; then, click OK. Step 6 Click OK in the login advisory dialog box. Step 7 If your CTM client software version is older than the CTM server software version, you are prompted with the following dialog box: CTM client needs to be upgraded for proper operation. Do you want to start the upgrade now? Selecting "No" will exit the application. Click Yes. The CTM server automatically upgrades your CTM client to the newer version. Click OK at the "Proceeding with upgrade" prompt and follow the prompts to install the newer client version. Note The default SysAdmin user has limited privileges. Create new CTM users with SuperUser privileges to have access to all CTM operations. See the Cisco Transport Manager Release 7.2 User Guide for information about user profiles and creating CTM users. 5.6 Starting Cisco Edge Craft in Sun Solaris Step 1 Depending on the option you chose during installation, execute the link that you specified, or enter the following command: /opt/CiscoTransportManagerClient/CiscoEdgeCraft/bin/CiscoEdgeCraft Step 2 At the Cisco Edge Craft login screen, complete the following substeps: a. Enter the community string. The community string represents the NE password, which is set in the NE Flash memory by using the CLI. b. Enter the IP address of the NE that you want to connect to. c. Click Logon.
