Cisco Cisco Prime Collaboration 10.6 Installation Guide

You can also verify the status of VSA Agent processes by entering the IP address of the VSA Agent 
system in a web browser: 

or 

See 

 if the processes are not running.

Configure the VSA Agent IP address (see 

).

The USB drive contains the live file system. To avoid data corruption, be sure to shut down the VSA 
Agent system in the proper manner.

You can configure the VSA Agent system IP address in either of two ways:

DHCP IP Address—The VSA agent system IP address is obtained automatically. Use the command 
ifconfig to find the IP address of the VSA Agent system. You can log into the VSA Agent system 
using SSH with the username root and the password tpc1sc0.

Static IP Address—The VSA Agent system IP address must be configured manually. 

To configure the static IP address on the VSA Agent system:

Boot the VSA agent system using the USB drive. See 

.

Choose System > Preferences > Network Connections.

In the Query dialog box, enter the root password 

, and click OK.

In the Network Configuration properties window, double-click a device name. 

In the Ethernet Device properties window, change the interface from DHCP to STATIC and enter the 
required data. 

If you change settings remotely, be sure to enter the values very carefully. You must have physical access 
to the VSA Agent system if you enter incorrect values.

After the configuration, reboot the system and verify the IP address configuration using the command 
ifconfig.

Also, you must verify whether you can reach the default gateway from the VSA agent system.

You are now ready to run the network readiness assessment using Prime Collaboration. See “Diagnostics 
for Video Endpoints” in 

 or 

for the procedure.
