4 Configuring the Router and CWI Client
To install CWI and for CWI to manage a router, specific configuration pieces must be active on the router. If you want to use
the serial port or terminal server connection method after installation, no further router configuration is required. For all other
connection methods, ensure that the router is configured, as described in this section.
The “Troubleshooting Basic IP Connectivity” section on page 24 provides information on resolving connectivity problems. See
Cisco IOS XR System Management Configuration Guide for information on the capabilities of, installation of
Cisco IOS XR software packages on, and bootup of the router.
These sections describe how to set up client connections on the router:
• Enabling the HTTP Server, page 5
• Setting Up the Common Configuration for IP Connection Methods, page 5
• Connection Methods, page 6
• Setting Up the Minimum Crypto Requirements, page 6
