The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

This chapter describes what you need to do to set up the Cisco Unified Application Environment and install applications.
It includes these topics:
•Understanding the Cisco Unified Application Environment Administration
Before you begin setting up the Cisco Unified Application Environment make sure:
1. The Cisco MCS server is installed. See Cisco Unified Application Environment Hardware Compatibility Matrix listed in Related Documentation, page xii.
2. The operating system and the Cisco Unified Application Environment are installed using the DVDs shipped with the server. See Installation Guide for the Cisco Unified Application Environment listed in Related Documentation, page xii.
3. You have accessed the Cisco Unified Application Environment Administration using one of these supported browsers:
–Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 6.0 or later
–Mozilla Firefox
See Installation Guide for the Cisco Unified Application Environment, Release 8.5 listed in Related Documentation, page xii.
4. You have obtained all the necessary the license files using the Product Authorization Key (PAK) in the Claim Certificate that is shipped with the server.
When you place an order for the Cisco Unified Application Environment, Cisco ships you a Claim Certificate with a Product Authorization Key (PAK). The Claim Certificate provides directions for registering the PAK to obtain the license. You must:
a. Register the PAK that you received using the License Registration web tool that is provided on Cisco.com at the following URL: https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/Licensing/PrivateRegistrationServlet.
b. Enter the MAC address of the server for which you are requesting the licenses, and a valid e-mail address.
A license file is generated per the license configuration you purchased, and sent to you using the e-mail address you provided.
To log in to the Cisco Unified Application Environment Administration, follow these steps:
