Install Geo Map Resource Files (Standard Deployment)
Installing geo map resource files for offline use in a standard environment (no high availability) involves the following steps:
Place the Geo Map Resource Files on the Cisco EPN Manager Server
Before You Begin
- If you plan to use a remote repository (because geo map files are very large), make sure a remote repository has been configured. For more information, refer to the topics on using remote FTP backup repositories in the Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager User and Administrator Guide .
- Make sure SCP is enabled on your client machine and the required ports are open.
This procedure shows you how to download and copy the geo map resources to the default local repository on the Cisco EPN Manager server.
Procedure
Step 1 |
Download the geo map compressed files to a client machine.
|
Step 2 |
Copy the geo map compressed files from the local machine to the Cisco EPN Manager server’s default local repository (/localdisk/defaultRepo).
|
What to do next
Install the geo map files as described in Install the Geo Map Resource Files on the Cisco EPN Manager Server .
Install the Geo Map Resource Files on the Cisco EPN Manager Server
Before You Begin
The installation process will extract the geo map files and install them in /opt/CSCOlumos/resources/offline_geo. To avoid storage constraints, consider mounting additional storage on the directory by editing the /etc/fstab file after logging in as a Linux CLI admin user. If you have high availability and need to mount additional storage, be sure to edit the /etc/fstab file on both the primary and secondary servers.
Procedure
Step 1 |
Start an SSH session with the Cisco EPN Manager server and log in as the Cisco EPN Manager CLI admin user. |
Step 2 |
Install the geo map resource file that is located in /localdisk/defaultRepo. Example:
Where filename is the geo map resource file located in /localdisk/defaultRepo (this is the file you copied in Place the Geo Map Resource Files on the Cisco EPN Manager Server). For example: Example:
The installation takes a few minutes to complete depending on the size of the map resources. |
What to do next
Configure Cisco EPN Manager to use the installed geo map files, as described in Configure the Cisco EPN Manager Server to Use the Installed Map Resources.
Configure the Cisco EPN Manager Server to Use the Installed Map Resources
Procedure
Step 1 |
Choose , then choose . |
Step 2 |
Check Enable Geo Maps. |
Step 3 |
Choose Installed Map Resources from the Map Provider drop-down list. |
Step 4 |
Click Save. You do not have to restart the Cisco EPN Manager server to apply your changes. A notification message informs you that the system is now working with the installed map resources. |
What to do next
Verify that the geo map files have been installed, as described in Verify that the Geo Maps Files Were Installed Successfully.
Verify that the Geo Maps Files Were Installed Successfully
After installing the geo map files and configuring the system to use these geo map files, check that they have been successfully installed and that they are being displayed in the GUI.
Procedure
Check that the map is being displayed in the GUI:
