Server Configuration Table

Server Configuration Information for Installation


Note

  • You can use the configuration table for saving your entries either on a printed paper or in the PDF document.

  • Be aware that the field values (namely hostname and passwords) that you enter while you are running the installation program are case-sensitive. Hostname must be in lower case and the character limit is 24 characters.

  • All the fields may not be applicable to your system and network configuration. Unless mentioned otherwise, you can change the values of most fields after the installation using CLI commands.


Attention
Changes to some of the configuration parameters may result in changes to the licence MAC, and you may have to rehost the Unified CCX license. For information about the configuration parameters, see Unified CCX Licenses.
Table 1. Node Configuration Table

Parameter

Your Entry

Administrator ID

Attention

 
You cannot change the original administrator account user ID; you can create additional administrator accounts.

Caution

 
Do not create administrator IDs (for CLI access or Operating System administration) that start with "uccx" or "UCCX" because such IDs conflict with system account names that are used internally within the Unified CCX server.

Administrator Password

Attention

 

This field specifies the password for the administrator account, which you use for secure shell access to the CLI, for logging in to Cisco Unified Operating System Administration, and for logging in to the Disaster Recovery System. Ensure that the password is at least six characters long and cannot exceed 31 characters; it can contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores.

You can change the password after installation.

Application User Name

Application User Password

Attention

 

Use the Application User password as the default password for applications that are installed on the system, including Unified CCX and Unified Communications Manager. Ensure that the password is at least six characters long and cannot exceed 31 characters; it can contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores.

You can change the password after installation.

DNS Primary

DNS Secondary (optional)

Domain

Gateway Address

Hostname

IP Address

IP Mask

MTU Size

Note

 
Use the same Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) value for all servers in the cluster.

NIC Duplex

Note

 
This parameter is not displayed if automatic negotiation is used.

NIC Speed

Note

 
This parameter is not displayed if automatic negotiation is used.

NTP Server

Attention

 

Enter the hostname or IP address of one or more Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers with which you want to synchronize.

You can enter up to five NTP servers.

You can change the NTP server after installation.

Security Password

Attention

 

Servers in the cluster use the Security password to communicate with one another. The password must contain at least six alphanumeric characters and cannot exceed 31 characters. It can contain hyphens and underscores, but it must start with an alphanumeric character.

Save this password. You will be asked to enter the same Security password when you install the second node to form a cluster.

You can change the password after installation by using the following CLI command:

CLI > set password user security

To avoid losing communications between nodes, you must change the Security password on both nodes in a cluster and reboot both the nodes. For more information, see the description of this command in the Cisco Unified Operating System Administration Guide at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/customer-collaboration/unified-contact-center-express/products-maintenance-guides-list.html.
