Confirming CMTS Registration 
Given proper headend support and DSAN hardware setup, the DSAN should 
configure automatically during the bootup period that immediately follows power-
up. 
Important: The DSAN bootup process takes several minutes to complete. There is no 
video output from the unit until the bootup process is complete. 
To confirm proper CMTS registration during bootup, first complete the following 
steps. 
1  Before applying power to the DSAN, open the unit and connect a PC laptop to its 
diagnostic port. See the CLI Diagnostics chapter of the Cisco DSAN System 
Installation and Operation Guide
, part number 4032302 for assistance as needed. 
2  Apply power to the DSAN and allow 5 minutes for the unit to boot up and 
complete its cable modem registration process. The dsan login: prompt appears 
on the PC laptop screen. 
3  Log in to the DSAN using the default user ID dsan and password dsan1234. Both 
user ID and password are case-sensitive. The DSAN> prompt appears. 
Then use the following descriptions of the registration and connection sequence to 
confirm successful CMTS registration.
