Finalize the Installation (First Time)

If you have not powered up the system before, the system prompts you to log in as ‘admin’, and leads you through the initialization steps. The most important step is entering the IP address of the Management Network Port.

To finalize the installation

===============================================================================
  Please log in as user 'admin' to perform the initial setup routine
===============================================================================
CPU-X login: admin

Define the internal network address to use for this system. You can use the default unless it matches a subnet already in use by the system elsewhere.

Note: If the address is taken, change the default. Changing the default entails that you also update the routing script that controls network connectivity to Policy Engines. You update the internal network routing after the NBA software installation.

To finalize your installation, please answer the following questions. When you are done, the machine will be rebooted and then ready to use.

The MCCP subnet needs to be a class C subnet that is only used internally. This cannot conflict with any traffic forwarded through this device, and also cannot conflict with any interfaces of this device.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
MCCP subnet address    ? [10.10.10.0]
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Please verify your settings:

  MCCP subnet address  : 10.10.10.0
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this correct? (y/n) [n] y

The internal network address is configured.

Define the management port network address. This address gives you access to the CA DataMinder NBA software package on the FTP server:

IP address for management port?  [10.0.12.17]
Network mask for management port?  [255.255.0.0]
Broadcast address for management port?  [10.0.255.255]
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Please verify your settings:

IP address for management port: 10.0.12.17
Network mask for management port: 255.255.0.0
Broadcast address for management port: 10.0.255.255
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this correct? (y/n) [n] y

Enter 'n'. You do not specify a default gateway.

You may enter a default gateway now for your management port, or choose N 
and configure all routes later using 'configure staticroutes'.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you want to specify a default gateway now? (y/n) [n] n

Enter a hostname for your NBA installation. The actual name is not important, but it must follow the format of hostname.domain.com (for example, nba17.ca.com). When asked to confirm, enter 'y'.

Hostname (incl. domain name)? [] nba17.ca.com
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Please verify your settings:

 Hostname (incl. domain name): nba17.ca.com
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this correct? (y/n) [n] y

Enter 'n'. You do not specify a name server.

Do you want to specify a name server now? (y/n) [n] n

Enter the default passwords when prompted: The passwords are 'root' for the root user and 'admin' for the admin user. You can change these later if required.

Next, please provide passwords for the standard system users:

root-> Privileged account for use by experts, in emergencies only
admin-> System administrator
---------------------------------------------------------------------

You will see a warning about password strength.

Enter the same password again at the "Re-enter…" prompt to override the warning:

Password for user: root
New password:
Bad password: too short
Re-enter new password:

Password for user: admin
New password:
Bad password: too simple
Re-enter new password:

Set the timezone at the next prompt. You can change this later if required. When asked to confirm, type 'y'.

The system restarts.

Wait for the system to restart. You do not need to set a ROM password. Do not press escape at the ROM Menu prompt. Wait until the ‘CPU-X login:’ prompt appears.
When you have completed these tasks, continue with the NBA software installation procedure.
