Installing

Installing the unit in a rack

See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C220/install/install.html#wp1341126

for information on how to install the unit in a rack.

Inserting the SFPs

The CE1000 unit is shipped with two 10 Gb fiber small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers and two 1

Gb copper SFPs. When inserting the SFPs into the unit, note that you cannot mix the type of SFP. Either

insert two 10 Gb fiber SFPs or two 1 Gb copper SFPs.

The SFPs do not auto-negotiate the speed, therefore ensure that the SFPs are connected to a switch at the

correct speed (1 Gb if connecting to the copper SFPs or 10 Gb if connecting to the fiber SFPs)

Note: you must install the 10 Gb fiber SFPs to take advantage of the unit's performance and scalability

capabilities, otherwise it will not support more than 150 traversal calls. This is the case even if the option key

for additional traversal calls has been installed.

Connecting and powering on the unit

Attach a power cord to each power supply in your server, and then attach the power cord to a grounded AC

power outlet. See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_

computing/ucs/c/hw/C220/install/spec.html#wp1070378 for power specifications.

The power button of the unit is located in the top left-hand corner of the front panel.

If this is the first time that the power switch has been turned on after connecting the power cable, the system

will perform a Self Test and the unit will automatically restart.This is expected behavior. The system will be

operational after it has booted up a second time. The first boot will take approximately 2 minutes.

To verify the power status look at the Power Status LED (see Figure 3: Front view of the Cisco Expressway

unit. [p.12]):

nOff—There is no AC power present in the server.

nAmber—The server is in standby power mode. Power is supplied only to the CIMC and some motherboard

functions.

nGreen—The server is in main power mode. Power is supplied to all server components.

Configuring

Before you can use the Cisco Expressway, you must configure its IPv4 and/or IPv6 address, subnet mask

and default gateway. Consult your network administrator for information on which addresses to use. Note

that the Cisco Expressway must use a static IP address.

This section describes how to connect to the Cisco Expressway and perform the initial configuration.

Connecting to the Cisco Expressway

Before you can use the Cisco Expressway, you must configure its IPv4 and/or IPv6 address, subnet mask

and default gateway. Consult your network administrator for information on which addresses to use. Note

that the Cisco Expressway must use a static IP address.

Note: an additional IPaddress is required if the CIMC(Cisco Integrated Management Controller) tool is used.

It can be a static IP address or assigned via DHCP.

This initial configuration can be done:

nby connecting from a PC to the Cisco Expressway using a serial cable (see Connecting via the serial port

[p.8] followed by Configuring the Cisco Expressway [p.9]).

nby connecting a monitor and keyboard directly into the unit (see Connecting via the KVM port [p.9] followed

by Configuring the Cisco Expressway [p.9]).

nif your network is set up to allow it, by connecting using a web browser to the default IP address of

192.168.0.100 (see Using the web interface [p.10]).

Figure 1: Rear panel showing ports.

The rear panel ports are:

1 VGAport

2 Serial port

3 Dedicated management port (can be used for CIMCin the

future)

4 LAN 1 (left-hand SFPport)

5 LAN 2 (right-hand SFPport)

8 USB port

9 USBport

Figure 2: Front panel showing KVM connector.

The front panel port is:

1 KVMconnector

Connecting via the serial port

To connect to the Cisco Expressway via the serial port:

1. Connect the Ethernet LAN cable from the LAN 1 port on the rear of the unit to your network.

The LAN 1 port is the left-hand port of the dual port adapter on the rear panel of the unit (shown in Figure 1:

Rear panel showing ports. [p.7]).

2. Connect a serial cable from the serial port on the rear of the unit to the serial port on a PC (see Figure 1:

Rear panel showing ports. [p.7]).

The serial cable used must be a cross-over cable. The pin assignment for the serial cable is:

Male RJ45 pin Female DB9 pin

1 8

2 6

3 TXD 2

4 GND 5

5 GND 5

6 RXD 3

7 4

8 7

Note:if there is no DB9 port on your PC, a DB9 to USBserial port adapter is required.

3. Start a terminal emulator program (for example PuTTY) on the PC and configure it to use the PC’s serial

port as follows:

Cisco Expressway CE1000 Appliance Installation Guide (8.5) Page 8 of 16

Configuring

lbaud rate: 115200 bits per second

ldata bits: 8

lparity: none

lstop bits: 1

lflow control (hardware and software): none

Note: do not leave a terminal emulator session open after it is no longer in use. An open session may

cause issues during a system restart.

Connecting via the KVM port

1. Connect the Ethernet LAN cable from the LAN 1 port on the rear of the unit to your network.

The LAN 1 port is the left-hand port of the dual port adapter (shown in Figure 1: Rear panel showing ports.

[p.7]).

2. Either:

lconnect a USB keyboard and VGA monitor via a KVMadaptor to the KVM connector on the front panel

(see Figure 2: Front panel showing KVM connector. [p.8]), or

lconnect a USBkeyboard to the USBport and a VGA monitor to the VGAport on the rear panel (see

Configuring [p.7]).

Configuring the Cisco Expressway

When you have connected to the Cisco Expressway and powered up the system, perform the following

steps for the initial configuration:

1. If the system has just booted up, the terminal emulator program on the PC will display the Cisco
