General information

Installing the Cisco TelePresence Server MSE

8710

IMPORTANT: Before installing the TelePresence Server into the MSE 8000 and connecting the power

supply, you must read the safety information at http://www.cisco.com/go/telepresence/safety.

CAUTION:

nMake sure that you have the correct power requirements and sufficient power in your PSU; for information

on powering the MSE 8000 refer to the Installation guides on cisco.com.

nAlthough blades are hot-swappable parts, you must only remove one blade at any time. Remove the

power from the MSE 8000, if you need to remove more than one blade at a time.

nBefore hot-swapping a blade, shut down the blade using the web interface. Do not shut down a blade

during a software upgrade or if the blade is processing.

nThe MSE 8000 backplane uses high performance data connectors. Do not remove TelePresence Server

blades unless absolutely necessary because doing so may reduce the life of those connectors.

Task 1: Install the blade in the chassis

You must install either a blade or a blanking blade in each of the ten positions in the chassis.

The Cisco TelePresence Supervisor MSE 8050 (Supervisor) blade must be installed into slot 1 of the MSE

8000 chassis.

1. Remove the blade or blanking blade from the slot into which you are going to install the TelePresence

Server:

i. Using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the screws in the retaining latches with an anti-clockwise

quarter turn.

ii. Open both retaining latches on the front of the blade or blanking blade. When open, a retaining latch is

at a 90° angle perpendicular to the front of the blade.

iii. Slide out the blade or blanking blade.

2. Open both retaining latches on the front of the TelePresence Server. When open, a retaining latch is at a

90° angle perpendicular to the front of the blade.

3. Slide the TelePresence Server into the blade slot (as shown in the following diagrams) until it stops.

Figure 2: Inserting a blade into the chassis

4. Simultaneously close both retaining latches on the blade (thereby engaging the connectors at the rear of

the blade) to secure it in the chassis as shown in the following diagram.

Figure 3: Closing the retaining latches on the front of a blade

5. Using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the screws in the retaining latches with a clockwise quarter

turn.

Installing the Cisco TelePresence Server MSE 8710

The power is connected automatically as soon as you close the latches. The LCD panel displays messages

as parts are checked and eventually you see “Waiting for application to boot” after which the Cisco logo

appears followed by the IP address allocated to the TelePresence Server.

Task 2: Connect to Ethernet Port A

Connect an Ethernet cable from Ethernet Port A to an Ethernet switch (rather than a hub, to minimize

interference from other devices on the network). The Ethernet port is a 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing

connection.

Note:Ethernet Ports B, C and D may not be supported in the software supplied with your blade. Do not

connect to these ports unless the web interface allows you to configure them. Do not connect multiple ports

to the same subnet unless instructed to do so by the web interface.

Task 3: Configure Ethernet Port A settings

The default setting for the TelePresence Server Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch ports to

which you connect the TelePresence Server are not also set to auto-sensing mode, then you need to

configure the TelePresence Server Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex mode.

Both ends of the Ethernet connection must be configured in the same way. For example, either

configure both ends of the link to be auto-sensing or configure both ends to operate at the same speed

and duplex.

To establish a 1000Mbps connection, both ends of the link must be configured as auto-sensing.

To configure Ethernet Port A, log in to the Supervisor’s web interface and go to Hardware > Blades. For

more information about configuring the port, see the online help accessible from the Supervisor’s web

interface.

Task 4: Assign an IP address to the TelePresence Server

You can use the Supervisor’s web interface to configure the IP addresses of all blades installed in the MSE

8000. Note that all blades are supplied with DHCP enabled and therefore the TelePresence Server will

attempt to find an IP address. You can either keep this setting or assign static IP addresses to a blade from

the Supervisor’s web interface. To view or configure the IP address of the TelePresence Server, log in to the

Supervisor and go to Hardware > Blades. To access the web interface of the TelePresence Server, go to

Hardware > Blades and click the IP address of that blade.

Task 5: Allocate licenses

TelePresence Server screen licenses must be allocated to the TelePresence Server's slot using the Port

licenses page on the Cisco TelePresence Supervisor MSE 8050. Refer to the Supervisor's online help for

more details on allocating licenses.

Task 6: Logging in to the TelePresence Server

All administration of the TelePresence Server is performed via its web interface. You can access the web

interface directly, using the IPaddress you assigned in Task 4: Assign an IP address to the TelePresence

Server [p.8].

Another option is to access the blade's interface via the Supervisor:

1. Log in to the Supervisor’s web interface.

2. Go to Hardware > Blades and click the IP address of the TelePresence Server.

3. Enter the user name admin with no password.

Note: We recommend that you secure the admin account as soon as possible. Go to the Users page to edit

account details.

Task 7: Configuring the TelePresence Server software

When you've successfully logged in, you can refer to the TelePresence Server's online help system to guide

you through configuration and ongoing maintenance of the system.

You can find additional documentation at the Cisco TelePresence Server MSE 8710 support page:

Checking for updates

It is a good idea to regularly check the Cisco web site for updates to the device's main software. This section

describes how to upgrade the device using the web interface.

To check for, and download, updates:

1. Log in to the web interface and go to Status > Status.

2. Make a note of the software version that is currently installed.

3. Go to the support section of the web site and check if a more recent release is available.

4. If a more recent release is available, download it and save it locally.

To upgrade the software application:

1. Unzip the software release file that you downloaded.

2. In the web interface, go to Configuration > Upgrade.

3. In the Main software image section, click Browse and locate the unzipped file.

4. Click Upload software image.

The browser begins uploading the file to the device, and a new browser window opens to indicate the

progress of the upload. When finished, the browser window refreshes and indicates that the software

upgrade is complete.

5. Go to Configuration > Shutdown to shut down and restart the device.

Note:Shutting down the device will disconnect all participants.
