Before You Begin

Make sure you have the following before you begin:

SysAdmin username and password for CTS-Manager

Administrator username and password for CTMS

Laptop computer attached to the network

Changing IP Address and Hostname of CTS-Manager

To change the IP address and hostname of CTS-Manager, do the following:


Step 1 Get the new IP address, which should be in the data VLAN, and new hostname, which should be with the new IP address in DNS.

Step 2 Log in to the CTS-Manager web UI and go to Configure > System Settings > IP

Step 3 In the IP Address field, replace the existing IP address with the new IP address and click Apply.

CTS-Manager restarts.

Step 4 After CTS-Manager has restarted, SSH to CTS-Manager using the new IP address and log in as the SysAdmin.

Step 5 Run the Set Network Hostname <new hostname> command.

Step 6 When CTS-Manager asks you to restart the system, select Yes.

CTS-Manager restarts.

Step 7 Log in to the CTMS web UI and go to Configure > CTS Manager

Step 8 In the Host field, change the IP address or hostname to the new IP address or hostname of CTS-Manager and click Apply.


Note In the Host field, you can use either hostname or IP address, but not both.


After restart, all CTS-Manager services will start and function normally with new IP and hostname.


Changing IP Address of CTMS

To change the IP address of CTMS, do the following:


Step 1 Get the new IP address, which should be from the voice VLAN, and hostname, which should be with the new IP address in DNS.

Step 2 Log in to the CTMS console as the admin and run following commands:

a. set network gateway <gateway IP>

b. network IP eth0 <new IP address> <mask IP>

CTMS restarts.

Step 3 Verify the new IP has been changed, by doing the following:

a. From the console, run the show network eth0 command and verify the new IP address is displayed.

b. SSH to the CTMS, run the cat/etc/hosts command and verify the new IP address is displayed.

c. Log in to the CTMS web UI, go to Troubleshoot > System Information and verify the new IP address is displayed.

d. Log in to the CTS-Manager web UI, go to Configure > Bridges and Servers, and verify the new IP address is displayed.


Note The meeting organizer will not receive any new emails from CTS-Manager for future meetings after the IP address is changed.


Step 4 Log in to the Unified CM Administration web UI, go to Device > Trunk and change the IP address for Destination Address to the new IP address.


Note Make this change wherever the CTMS IP address is used.
