This guide contains instructions for installing and configuring Cisco Integrated Management Controller Express (CIMC-E) 1.0.2 in the following sections:
•Installing CIMC-E 1.0.2 Image
For more detailed information, see Cisco Integrated Management Controller Express.
Installing CIMC-E 1.0.2 Image
Before you install the CIMC-E software, you must configure and enable the Embedded Service Engine as described in Cisco Integrated Management Controller Express.
Step 1 Verify that the Embedded Service Engine is enabled using this command.
router# service-module Embedded-Service-Engine 0/0 statusService Module is Cisco Embedded-Service-Engine0/0Service Module supports session via TTY line 2Service Module heartbeat-reset is enabledEmbedded Service Engine boot state is UBOOT UPNo install/uninstall in progressIf the Embedded Service Engine is enabled, it is in the UBOOT UP state, as shown in this example.
Step 2 Copy the following files to an FTP server:
•cimce-full.vsem.1.0.2.prt1
•cimce-installer.vsem.1.0.2.prt1
•cimce-k9.vsem.1.0.2.key
•cimce-k9.vsem.1.0.2.pkg
•cimce-k9.vsem.1.0.2.pkg.install.sre
•cimce-k9.vsem.1.0.2.pkg.install.sre.header
•cimce-installer.vsem.1.0.2
This example is for a Cisco 2911 or Cisco 2921 (vsem) platform. For Cisco 2951 platforms and higher, the file names include "vsep" instead of "vsem."
Step 3 From the Cisco IOS prompt, enter the following command:
router# service-module Embedded-Service-Engine 0/0 install url ftp://<ftpserver>/cimce-k9.vsem.1.0.2.pkgStep 4 From the Cisco IOS prompt, enter the following command to monitor the status of the installation:
router# service-module Embedded-Service-Engine 0/0 status
Initial Configuration
To properly configure the CIMC-E application, you must run commands on both Cisco IOS software and CIMC-E software as described in the following sections:
•Cisco IOS Initial Configuration Commands
•CIMC-E Initial Configuration Commands
•Verifying that CIMC-E is Configured Properly
Cisco IOS Initial Configuration Commands
Follow these procedures on your Cisco ISR G2:
•Setting Up HTTPS Server and Authentication
Setting Up HTTPS Server and Authentication
Enter the following configuration commands on the Cisco ISR G2 to allow CIMC-E to communicate with the Cisco ISR G2 over HTTPS:
router# config trouter(config)# ip http secure-serverrouter(config)# ip http authentication localrouter(config)# exitrouter#Configuring WSMA
Enter the following configuration commands on the Cisco ISR G2 to allow CIMC-E to retrieve information from the Cisco ISR G2:
router# config trouter(config)# username wsmauser privilege 15 password 0 passwordrouter(config)# wsma profile listener wsmarouter(config-wsma-listen)# transport https path /cimcerouter(config)# wsma agent exec profile wsmarouter(config)# wsma agent config profile wsmarouter(config)# wsma agent notify profile wsmarouter(config)# exitrouter#Configure Command Rollback
Enter the following configuration commands on the Cisco ISR G2 to allow CIMC-E to communicate with the Cisco ISR G2 properly:
router# config tEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.router(config)# archiverouter(config-archive)# log configrouter(config-archive-log-cfg)# hidekeysrouter(config-archive-log-cfg)# exitrouter(config-archive)# path flash:rollrouter(config-archive)# maximum 5router(config-archive)# exitrouter#CIMC-E Initial Configuration Commands
When the Cisco ISR G2 has been properly configured, the CIMC-E software must be configured with settings that match what was entered on the Cisco ISR G2. To do this, log in to the CIMC-E CLI interface using Secure Shell (SSH).
Note The default username and password for CIMC-E is "admin" and "password" respectively.
Below is an example of how to log into the CIMC-E CLI interface. For this example, the IP address of the Embedded-Service-Engine is 10.0.0.5.
ssh admin@10.0.0.5admin@10.0.0.5's password:se-10-0-0-5#CIMC-E must be configured using the same parameters that were used in the "Cisco IOS Initial Configuration Commands" section. The following commands are found in the scope "cimce."
se-10-0-0-5# scope cimcese-10-0-0-5 /cimce # set username wsmauserse-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# set password password
se-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# set url url
se-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# commitThe following example shows uses the configuration above. For this example, the IP address of the Cisco ISR G2 (as reachable from the Embedded Service Engine) is 10.0.0.2.
se-10-0-0-5# scope cimcese-10-0-0-5 /cimce # set username wsmauserse-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# set password password
se-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# set url 10.0.0.2/cimcese-10-0-0-5 /cimce *# commitUsername: wsmauserPassword: <hidden>End Point: 10.0.0.2/cimceNew config changes have been savedse-10-0-0-5 /cimce #The URL is the IP address of the Cisco ISR G2, followed by the path set up in the "Configuring WSMA" section.
The username and password set up here must correspond to the username and password set up in the "Configuring WSMA" section.
Verifying that CIMC-E is Configured Properly
To verify that the CIMC-E application is configured properly, use the show hardware command in scope router. In the following example, the IP address of the Embedded Service Engine is 10.0.0.5:
ssh admin@10.0.0.5admin@10.0.0.5's password:se-10-0-0-5# scope routerse-10-0-0-5 /router# show hardwareCisco IOS Software, C2900 Software (C2900-UNIVERSALK9-M)Cisco CISCO2911/K9 (revision 1.0) with 729056K/57344K bytes of memory.Chassis Serial Number : FTX1405A1Z5Chassis MAC Address : 0000.e181.5150se-10-0-0-5#If CIMC-E is configured properly, you should see output similar to this example when you run the show hardware command.
