Step 9

Log in to the terminal and enter the default username root and default password cisco.

Step 10

Enter the network settings by specifying parameters such as IP address, hostname, and so on, that you want to configure on the Cisco Spaces: Connector.

Note	Because this configuration screen times out in 60 seconds, ensure that you provide the input on time to avoid reconfiguration.

You can add multiple DNS servers as a comma separated list in this step. After the task is complete and the Cisco Spaces: Connector is deployed, you can login to the connector CLI, and run the connectorctl network config command to add more DNS servers or edit the existing list.

Step 11

Enter the time zone.

Step 12

Enter the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server name to synchronize the system time with the NTP server's or leave it blank if you do not want to configure an NTP server.

Step 13

Set a new password for the root user.

Step 14

Set a new password for the dnasadmin user, which is user with administrative privileges.

Step 15

Copy and save the URL before the automatic reboot. You can use this URL later to open the Cisco Spaces: Connector GUI.

Step 1

Download connector 2.3 from Cisco.com.

Step 2

Step 11

Configure the network settings for the private network by specifying the parameters such as IP address, hostname, and so on.

Step 12

Configure subnets that the connector can reach.

You can observe as the configurations and network reachability are verified.

Step 13

Enter the time zone.

Step 14

Enter the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server name to synchronize the system time with the NTP server's or leave it blank if you do not want to configure an NTP server.

Step 15

Set a new password for the root user.

Step 16

Set a new password for the dnasadmin user, which is user with administrative privileges.

Step 17

Copy and save the URL before the automatic reboot. You can use this URL later to open the Cisco Spaces: Connector GUI.

Step 18

Verify the network Settings of external-facing network using the connectorctl networkconfig cloudstatus command.

Step 19

Verify the network settings of private network using the connectorctl networkconfig devicestatus command.

Step 1

Download connector 2.3 from Cisco.com.

Step 2

Copy the downloaded file on to the machine hosting the connector.

Step 3

Log in to the connector command line.

Step 4

Use the connectorctl upgrade <<upgrade_file_name>> command to start the OVA upgrade process.
