Installing the MWTM Client on Windows

The MWTM client software can be installed on a Windows XP Professional system from the DVD-ROM or downloaded from the MWTM server's web server. This chapter describes how to install the MWTM client software, how to verify installation, and how to uninstall and reinstall the MWTM on Windows.

This chapter includes the following sections:

•Installing the MWTM Client for Windows from the DVD-ROM

•Installing the MWTM Client for Windows Using the Web Server

•Verifying MWTM Client Installation

•Uninstalling the MWTM Client

Installing the MWTM Client for Windows from the DVD-ROM

Before running the MWTM installation program, make sure your Windows system meets the requirements listed in "Preparing to Install the MWTM."

When you run the MWTM installation program, you are asked for the name of the host on which the MWTM server software is installed and an MWTM server port number, and, optionally, a CiscoWorks server name and web port number. Verify this information with the system administrator who installed the MWTM server software before running the program.

To begin the installation of the MWTM client software:

Step 1 Insert the MWTM DVD-ROM in the DVD-ROM drive on the workstation. The MWTM program files are automatically extracted from the DVD-ROM. When all the files are extracted, the Cisco MWTM Client Setup window appears, with the text, "Welcome to the InstallShield Wizard for MWTM Client."

Note If the setup window does not appear automatically when you insert the DVD-ROM, go to the root directory and run the setup.exe command. If you are having trouble reading the DVD-ROM, make sure your DVD-ROM drive complies with the ISO 9660 standard.

Step 2 Click Next. The Directory Name window appears.

Note Before continuing, you should know the name of the host on which the MWTM server is installed and the MWTM naming server port number (the default is 44742).

Step 3 Accept the default location, enter a location, or browse to find a location, then click Next.

Step 4 In the MWTM Server Name field, enter the name of the host on which the MWTM server software is installed.

Step 5 (Optional) In the MWTM Server Port field, enter a numeric server port number. The default is 44742.

If the MWTM server is using a different port number, enter that number in this field. The MWTM client and server can communicate only if they are configured for the same port number.

Do not enter a non-numeric port number. If you do, you are prompted to enter a numeric port number.

Step 6 Click Next. The CiscoWorks window appears.

Step 7 (Optional) If you do not have a CiscoWorks server, skip to Step 9.

If you do have a CiscoWorks server, enter the name of the host on which the CiscoWorks server is installed in the Cisco Works Server Name field. The CiscoWorks server can be the same as the MWTM server, or it can be a different server.

Step 8 (Optional) In the Cisco Works Server Port field, enter a numeric CiscoWorks web port number. The default is 1741.

Step 9 Click Next. The Summary window appears.

Step 10 Click Install and the files are copied. When all of the files have been copied, the InstallShield Wizard Complete window appears. Installation is complete.

Step 11 Click Finish and remove the DVD-ROM from the drive.

Installing the MWTM Client for Windows Using the Web Server

You can use the MWTM web server to access the client installation software if you do not have access to the DVD-ROM, or if you prefer to download the MWTM client software from the MWTM server to run the installation.

To install the MWTM client on a Windows system from the MWTM web server:

Step 1 From your browser, go to the URL for the MWTM web server:
http://your_MWTM_server:1774
where your_MWTM_server is the name or IP address of the MWTM web server and 1774 is the web port being using by the MWTM. (1774 is the default port number.) If you do not know the name or web port of the MWTM web server, contact the system administrator who installed the MWTM server software.

The MWTM server home page appears (Figure 4-1).

Figure 4-1 Part of the MWTM Server Home Page

Step 2 Click Download Windows Client. The Download Instructions for MWTM Client onWindows page appears.

Step 3 Click Download the Windows Client to download the installation setup program for Windows XP Professional.

Step 4 When queried, specify the directory into which you want to download the installation software file.

Step 5 Go to the download directory and double-click the setup.exe command to install the software. The installation files automatically uncompress into a temporary directory, and the Cisco MWTM Client Setup window appears, with the text, "Welcome to the InstallShield Wizard for the Cisco MWTM Client."

Note It is recommended to temporarily disable any anti-virus and security software before installing the MWTM client on your computer.

Step 6 Continue with Step 2 in Installing the MWTM Client for Windows from the DVD-ROM.

Verifying MWTM Client Installation

To verify the MWTM client installation:

Step 1 Make sure the MWTM server is available.

Step 2 Make sure the MWTM client icon appears on the desktop.

Step 3 Make sure the following options are in the Start > Programs > Cisco MWTM Client menu:

•Modify Default MWTM Server Name

•MWTM Client

•MWTM DOS Prompt

•MWTM Event Editor

•MWTM SSL Certificate Tool

•Readme

•Uninstall MWTM Client

Step 4 To start the MWTM client, use one of the following methods:

•Choose Start > Programs > Cisco MWTM Client > MWTM Client.

•Double-click the MWTM Client icon on the Windows desktop.

The MWTM must discover your network during operation. If the MWTM server installation is successful, and if you do not now configure the MWTM server to automatically discover your network the first time the server starts after installation, the Discovery dialog box and the MWTM main window appear upon client startup. For details about these windows and the discovery process, see the User Guide for the Cisco Mobile Wireless Transport Manager 6.0.

Uninstalling the MWTM Client

You can use the standard Add/Remove Programs icon in the Windows Control Panel to uninstall the MWTM, or you can uninstall the MWTM from the Windows Start menu.

To uninstall the MWTM:

Step 1 Exit all open MWTM windows.

Step 2 From the Windows Start menu, choose Start > Programs > Cisco MWTM Client > Uninstall MWTM Client.

Note You can also uninstall the MWTM from the Windows Control Panel by clicking Add/Remove Programs, selecting MWTM Client, and clicking Change/Remove, but using the Windows Start Menu is the recommended method.

Step 3 Click OK in the Confirm File Deletion window. The MWTM components are removed.

Step 4 Click Finish. The MWTM has been successfully uninstalled.
