How to Configure and Manage the Network Analysis Module (NM-NAM)

Cisco IOS Release: Multiple releases (see the Feature History Table)
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
reboot
Example:
root@nam1.cisco.com# reboot
Shuts down and restarts the NAM.
• Remember to perform this task in the NAM CLI.
Step 2
y
Example:
Reboot the NAM? (Y/N) [N]: y
Confirms that you want to reboot the NAM.
• After you confirm the reboot, the NAM displays a
series of messages as it stops processes, shuts down,
and then restarts.
Step 3
When prompted, enter *** to change the boot
configuration.
Example:
Please enter '***' to change boot
configuration: ***
Interrupts the boot loader.
• Enter *** immediately after the prompt appears.
• If you do not enter the *** in time to interrupt the boot
loader, then return to Step 1 and try again.
Step 4
boot flash
Example:
ServicesEngine boot-loader> boot flash
Loads the NAM helper image.
• This command is entered in the boot loader CLI, which
is separate from the NAM CLI and Cisco IOS CLI.
Step 5
When prompted to select from the helper menu, enter 1
or 2.
Example:
Selection [12345678rh]: 1
Example:
Selection [12345678rh]: 2
Selects the menu option to download the NAM software
image onto the NM-NAM internal memory.
• Option 1 preserves all configuration and report data
while installing the NAM software image.
• Option 2 reformats the NM-NAM hard drive, deleting
all report data and NAM software configurations,
except the basic IP configuration. Although useful for
recovering a corrupted hard drive, Option 2 should be
used with caution or when recommended by technical
support.
• The helper menu also has an option (7) to change the
file transfer method from the default FTP method.
Before performing Step 5, you may enter 7 to select the
TFTP transfer method. Because many TFTP servers
have problems transferring files as large as the NAM
application image, we recommend that you use the
default FTP method.
Step 6
ftp://ip-address/path/nam-image-file
Example:
Download NAM application image via ftp and
write to HDD
URL of application image []:
ftp://172.20.98.136/dir1/dir2/nam-image.bin.gz
Specifies the FTP location and filename of the NAM
software image.
