Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco WAN Modeling Tools
Upgrading the NMT Software
Upgrading the NMT Software
NMT feature releases have unique sub directory names. The installation of a new feature release requires
the creation or alteration of the working directories. Maintenance releases, however, use the same
software directory you created in the previous section. The working directories automatically use the
upgrade through UNIX links to the software.
Use the following procedure to perform a maintenance upgrade of NMT software on a UNIX system.
Step 1 Enter the cd <directory> command to log onto the same account that was used to initially install the
software, as shown in the following example:
cd /usr/users/NMT
Step 2 Copy the compressed tar file 151.0.tar.Z to the same directory in which the release was initially installed.
Step 3 Enter the uncompress <filename> command to uncompress the file, as shown in the following example.
uncompress 151.0.tar
Step 4 Enter the tar xf <filename> UNIX command to untar the file as shown in the following example:
tar xf 151.0.tar
Starting the NMT
Use the following steps to run the NMT and any NMT UNIX commands.
Note Always enter the commands in the NMT working directory.
Step 1 If you are on a Cisco StrataView platform, while logged in as Cisco Wan Manager (CWM) and in the
svplus directory, enter the xhost + command to grant xwindows permission. (This can be done from the
console window or an xterm window.)
xhost +
Note You may want to add the xhost + command to the svplus.login file.
Step 2 Enter your user name and enter your password to log in to your user home directory. For example,
/usr/users/my_name.
