Installing Cisco Access Registrar

This chapter provides information about installing Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 software. The software is available in CD-ROM form and can also be downloaded from the Cisco.com Web site. The installation instructions differ slightly depending on whether you install the software from the Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 CD-ROM or from downloaded software.

Note This version of Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 can be used with Solaris 8, Solaris 9, or the Red Hat 7.3 Linux operating system using kernel version 2.4.20-24.7, glibc version 2.2.5-42.

Installing the Cisco AR License File

You must have a license file in a directory on the Cisco AR machine before you attempt to install Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 software. After purchasing Cisco Access Registrar 3.5, you will receive a license file in an EMail attachment. Save or copy this license file to a directory on the Cisco AR workstation. If you have not installed the Cisco AR license file before beginning the software installation, the installation process will fail.

You can store the Cisco AR license file in any directory on the Cisco AR machine. During the installation process, you will be asked the location of the license file, and the installation process will copy the license file to the /opt/CSCOar/license directory or to the base installation directory you specify when you install the software if you are not using the default installation location.

The license file might have the name ciscoar.lic, but it can be any filename with the suffix .lic. To install the Cisco AR license file, you can copy and paste the text into a file, or you can simply save the file you receive in EMail to an accessible directory.

Installing Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 Software on Solaris

This section describes the software installation process when installing Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 software on a Solaris workstation for the first time. This section includes the following subsections:

•Deciding Where to Install

•Installing Cisco AR Software from CD-ROM

•Installing Downloaded Software

•Common Installation Steps

Tips Before you begin to install the software, check your workstation's /etc/group file and make sure that group staff exists. The software installation will fail if group staff does not exist before you begin.

Deciding Where to Install

Before you begin the software installation, you should decide where you want to install the new software. The default installation directory for Cisco AR 3.5 software is /opt/CSCOar. You can use the default installation directory, or you can choose to install the Cisco AR software in a different directory.

Installing Cisco AR Software from CD-ROM

The following steps describe how to begin the software installation process when installing software from the Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 CD-ROM. If you are installing downloaded software, proceed to Installing Downloaded Software.

Note Only the Solaris 8 version of Cisco AR 3.5 is available on CD-ROM.

Step 1 Place the Cisco Access Registrar 3.5 software CD-ROM in the Cisco AR workstation CD-ROM drive.

Step 2 Log in to the Cisco AR workstation as a root user, and enter the following command line:

pkgadd -d /cdrom/cdrom0/kit/solaris-2.8 CSCOar
Step 3 Proceed to Common Installation Steps.

Installing Downloaded Software

This section describes how to uncompress and extract downloadedCisco Access Registrar 3.5 software and begin the software installation.

Step 1 Log in to the Cisco AR workstation as a root user.

Step 2 Change directory to the location where you have stored the uncompressed tarfile.

cd /tmp
Step 3 Use the following command line to uncompress the tarfile and extract the installation package files.

zcat CSCOar-3.5.3-sunos58-k9.tar.gz | tar xvf -

Note These instructions are for the Solaris 8 package. There is no difference in download or installation procedures for Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 other than the package name.

Step 4 Enter the following command to begin the installation:

pkgadd -d /tmp CSCOar
where /tmp is the temporary directory where you stored and uncompressed the installation files.

Step 5 Proceed to Common Installation Steps.

Common Installation Steps

This section describes the installation process immediately after you have issued the pkgadd command installing from CD-ROM or from downloaded software.

RPC Bind Services

The Cisco AR server and the aregcmd CLI requires RPC services to be running before the server is started. If the RPC services are stopped, you must restart rpc services, then restart the Cisco AR server. Use the following commands to restart RPC services:

arserver stop
/etc/init.d/rpc start
arserver start
If RPC services are not running, the following message is displayed when you attempt to start aregcmd:
