Cisco Systems Broadband Access Center Manual De Usuario

This chapter describes how to install BACC in a lab environment to demonstrate product functionality 
and how to configure a CMTS and Network Registrar to support BACC.

When you install Broadband Access Center for Cable (BACC) in a lab environment, the installation 
program installs all components on a single server. The lab installation program involves fewer steps 
than the component installation and automates much of the configuration. When you complete the 
installation, however, you need to perform some setup on a cable modem termination system (CMTS) 
and on Network Registrar.

The lab installation program is designed to keep the installation and configuration as simple as possible 
by using a predefined overall system configuration.

The lab installation program uses predefined default values for the installation that assume a specific 
network configuration.

You can install BACC in a lab environment on a single computer running the Solaris 8 or 9 operating 
system. Before you run the installation program, use this checklist to ensure that you are ready:

Verify the prerequisite system hardware and software requirements described in 

Have your BACC evaluation license key or keys at hand. You need a valid license key for each 
technology that you want to provision with BACC.

Ensure that you have root access to the computers where you intend to install BACC.

Verify that Network Registrar is installed and running on the server. We recommend that you use 
Network Registrar 6.1.2.3 or higher. 

Determine the destination directory in which you want to install BACC. 

Cisco Systems recommends that you have at least 350 MB of disk space available. 

For extensions, determine the name of provisioning group to which the Network Registrar server 
belongs.

Verify that you have the necessary Network Registrar configuration files. See 

 for an example of these configuration files.
