Power On and Initial Setup
Procedure
Step 1 Verify that the monitor and keyboard are connected as described in the Quick Start Guide.
Step 2 Power on the monitor.
Step 3 Verify that power is connected and the Power LED status, as shown in Figure 1: Power and LED Status -
BE7000M Server, on page 1 and Figure 2: Power and LED Status - BE7000H Server, on page 2.
Figure 1: Power and LED Status - BE7000M Server
If the status of the Power LED is orange, that indicates server is off. If it is not, check the electrical and network
connections. If the status of the Power LED is green, skip forward to step 5.

Step 4 Push the power button (3) and verify that the power button LED the disk LED disk drive change to green.
Step 5 Watch the boot process on the monitor.
Step 6 (Optional) Press F8 to open the CIMC Configuration window when prompted. In the CIMC Configuration
window, reset the CIMC password, configure the management interface IP address, and then exit.
The Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) is the management interface for the C-Series
Servers. CIMC runs within the server, allowing remote administration, configuration, and monitoring
of the server via web or SSH command line access.
Note
Step 7 (Optional) If you are using CIMC for remote console access, browse to the IP address that you configured
and do one of the following:
•If you have changed the CIMC password in step 6, provide the new password.
•If you have not changed the CIMC password in step 6, use the default username admin and password
password.
Step 8 If you use the default username and password to log in to the Cisco Integrated Management Controller screen,
the system prompts you to change the password. Changing the password is mandatory.

Step 5 Connect your PC to the data network, and browse to the new Hypervisor IP address. Verify the web page as
shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7: Hypervisor Welcome Page
Step 6 If not already installed on your PC, download and install the vSphere client from the link on the hypervisor
welcome page.
You need internet access to download the vSphere client from this link. If Internet access is not available, you
can download the client installation file from [datastore1] /OVA-ISO/vmware. A link to browse the datastore
is provided on the right of the screen shown in figure 7.
Access and Configure Hypervisor
Some Business Edition applications require the host to have a valid time reference. Follow these steps to
access the ESXi host, configure NTP, configure fault tolerance for network interface cards (NICs) using the
NIC teaming feature, view predeployed applications, and browse the datastore to verify the preloaded
collaboration application software.

Access and Configure Hypervisor
Procedure
Step 1 Launch the vSphere client application and type the IP address of the Hypervisor.
Figure 8: Access Hypervisor Using vSphere Client
Step 2 Use the login credentials that you previously configured.
Step 3 (Optional) If you order BE7000 with factory-preloaded embedded license, then the BE7000 Cisco UC
Virtualization Foundation license is predeployed and is therefore ready for use on delivery. If you need to
reapply the license, follow these steps:
a) Note the Master Serial Number that is shipped with the server. The Master Serial Number is the license
activation key.
The Master Serial Number is pre-activated. You do not need to register it at http://
www.VMware.com.
Note
This serial number is hardcoded for a two-CPU system. You cannot combine it, or register it,
with other licenses at http://www.VMware.com. You cannot change the serial number to
single-CPU or greater than two-CPU.
Note
b) Navigate to Configuration >Software >Licensed Features, and click Edit.
c) Select Assign a new license key to this host.
d) Click Enter Key....
e) Type in the Master serial number.
f) Click OK to close configuration dialogs and apply the license.

Step 4 Configure NTP:
a) Navigate to Configuration >Software >Time Configuration.
b) Click Properties to launch the Time Configuration screen.
c) Update the Time Click Options... .
d) Select NTP Settings.
e) Click Add and type the IP address of NTP server. Repeat this step to add multiple NTP servers.
f) Click OK.
g) Select General >Start and Stop with Host.
h) Click Start button. Click OK to close the configuration screens.
Step 5 Configure network fault tolerance by using the NIC teaming feature in VMware:
a) Navigate to Configuration >Hardware >Networking.
b) Click Properties for “Standard Switch: vSwitch0,”as shown in the figure below.
c) In the configuration screen vSwitch0 Properties, select the tab Network Adapters.
d) Click Add…to add the NIC that is connected to data network.
e) Follow the interactive configuration dialogs and close the configuration screens until you see two or more
NICs are added to vSwitch0, as shown in the figure below.
By default, only one NIC is enabled for the Hypervisor and identified as vmnic0.Note

If connecting teamed NICs to a Cisco switch channel-group, ensure that the NIC teaming load
balancing policy is set to Route based on IP hash. For more information about this policy and other
aspects of hypervisor networking for Cisco Collaboration applications, see Deploying Expressway

The Hypervisor is now ready to host virtualized collaboration applications. Virtual machines for seven of the
most commonly used collaboration applications are predeployed on the hypervisor for you. Software for these
collaboration applications and additional applications are also preloaded in the datastore for your convenience.
Step 6 Browse the datastore:
a) Navigate to Configuration >Hardware >Storage.
b) Click Datastore to list the datastores in the Business Edition server.
