Chapter 2 Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Platform Component Startup and Shutdown Procedures

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Startup Procedures

This section contains the hardware and software startup procedures for the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch.

Starting the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Hardware

The system switch of the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch is a rocker, momentary contact switch that

functions as a standby device only. This switch controls the logic circuits that enable power module

output.

Note The system switch for each Sun Netra platform is unique. See the documentation that is provided by Sun

Microsystems for more information on your system.

To power on the system, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Turn on the power to all connected peripherals.

Note Peripheral power is activated before system power so that the system can recognize the

peripherals when it is activated.

Step 2 Apply power to the system inlet.

Step 3 Press the front panel ON/STBY system switch to the ON position and hold it until the system starts to

power up.

Starting the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Software

Under normal conditions, simply powering up the system automatically launches the Cisco PGW 2200

Softswitch software and the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) daemon using system

defaults. See the “Configuring SNMP Support Resources” section in Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch

Software Release 9.8 Installation and Configuration Guide for more information about SNMP.

Note Ensure that the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software Release 9 has been correctly installed, configured,

and provisioned on the host server. Ensure that you have the appropriate packages, or applications, for

your system. If the software has been installed, configured, or provisioned incorrectly, or you have other

problems, see Chapter 6, “Troubleshooting the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Platform,” for more

information.

Note To perform the procedures in this section, you must have a user ID that is part of the Cisco PGW 2200

Softswitch group (mgcgrp). Also, you must have the proper group privileges. To verify that your user ID

is valid and that you have the necessary privileges, see the “Configuring Groups and Users” section in

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Software Release 9.8 Installation and Configuration Guide for more

information.
