These scripts should normally be run as root. However, Cisco MGM facilitates running these scripts as
non-root users using sudo. During the Cisco MGM server installation, the setup program prompts you
to specify the name of the UNIX group to which you want to assign administrator privileges. By default,
this group is set to root. If you specify a group other than root, the setup program verifies that the UNIX
group exists on the system and adds entries to the /etc/sudoers file for each of the commands listed
above. As such a UNIX user who is a member of the specific group can run the commands using sudo.
Sudo is bundled with Cisco MGM and is located in /opt/CiscoMGMServer/admin/sudo/. In order to use
the sudo bundled with Cisco MGM the following command should first be run.
Note The default directory /opt/CiscoMGMServer may have been changed during installation of the
Cisco MGM server.
Further details about the use and configuration of sudo are provided in the Cisco MGM Installation
Guide.
5.4 How Do I Manage the Network Software?
Cisco MGM provides a mechanism to download software image from the Cisco MGM server onto the
MGX8880 switch. When the software download is scheduled, an FTP connection is opened to the switch
using the IP address, User ID and password. The software image is downloaded to the FW directory. The
FTP connection is closed and Cisco MGX processes resume.
Note There is no support for downloading images from an external TFTP server. Software images can be
downloaded only if they are locally present on the Cisco MGM server.
When the software image is downloaded, you can use the following commands at the CLI:
• dsprev to display the image on the switch
• loadrev to load the image on the switch
• setrev to set the image on the switch
• runrev command to activate the image on the switch.
Follow the procedures described in this section to download new or modified images to NEs:
