Installation Notes
•
Before you install Common Services, make sure your server and client environments meet the hardware and software requirements described in "Prerequisites."
•
We recommend that you run the installation from a local CD or a local hard drive to avoid errors that may result from the network being slow or busy.
If you want to install from a local hard drive, you have to copy the contents in a CD to a local hard drive. Ensure that you copy the entire contents from the CD to the hard drive. If you are installing on a Solaris 2.9 system, you must preserve the timestamp when you copy the contents from the CD to the hard drive. Use cp -rp command to preserve the timestamp.
•
The values in square bracket are default values. If you press Enter when the installation program prompts you to enter a value during installation, the program will take the default value.
•
You must have root privileges to install Common Services.
•
Do not install CiscoWorks and ACS on the same machine. This is because ACS mandates CiscoWorks to be configured as an AAA client in it for CiscoWorks to avail AAA service.
At the same time, you cannot configure ACS as an AAA client as is required when ACS and CiscoWorks coexist. Hence the configuration required for ACS integration will fail.
Using Server IP Address
CiscoWorks uses the IP address of the server when it interacts with web browsers. By using the server IP address, CiscoWorks eliminates name lookup failures between the server and the client systems that run web browsers.
TCP and UDP Ports Information
Table 2-2 gives information on the TCP and UDP ports used by Common Services.
