Completing Initial Configuration Warning To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into RJ-45 connectors. When you first set up the Cisco MXE 3500, perform the initial configuration described in this section to enter the IP address for the appliance and set the password for the administrator account. The initial configuration enables the Cisco MXE 3500 to connect to the LAN. You can then access the Cisco MXE 3500 Web UI and Windows desktop through its public IP address for additional configuration. Note During the ESXi configuration, following warning message appears “failed for 000:128:01.0”. Ignore this warning message to continue with the installation, press Alt+F1 key to view the background installation progress. Note In case there is any network connectivity issue after MXE IP configuration, press F2 key at CIMC KVM level. Login into ESXi using root as user name and default password. Go to Configure Management Network > Network Adapters. If the connected device for the network adapter is different from the selected device then manually select the connected device. Before You Begin • The following equipment is required to perform the initial configuration: – Keyboard with USB connector – Monitor • The Cisco MXE 3500 V3 appliance does not support the Cisco Card option to access the CIMC. Procedure Step 1 Connect the keyboard and monitor to the Cisco MXE 3500 rear panel.

Obtain and install the full Cisco MXE 3500 Release 3.3.2 license with the base PID and any optional feature PIDs. The Software License Claim Certificate that ships with your Cisco MXE 3500 appliance contains instructions on how to obtain licenses. Instructions on how to obtain and install a license are also detailed in the “Licensed Features” chapter of the Administration Guide for Cisco MXE 3500 Release 3.3 on Cisco.com. Configure the Cisco MXE 3500 Your Cisco MXE 3500 appliance comes configured with some system and user settings. After initial configuration, access the Cisco MXE 3500 web UI to perform the following tasks described in the “Configuration and Administration Tasks” section of the Administration Guide for Cisco MXE 3500 Release 3.3: Note • Configure Users—The Cisco MXE 3500 comes with the default user as admin. For improved security, we suggest that you change the password for this user. • Configure Hosts—For a standalone deployment, configure only one host. The first host is always the same IP address as the standalone or RM appliance configured in the initial configuration. For a cluster, add each Resource Node (RN) as a host. This task makes the RM aware of the RN on which to schedule jobs and tasks. • Configure Input and Output Directories—The default setting for the input and output directories points to LOCALHOST. For a clustered deployment, replace LOCALHOST with the IP address of the RM appliance. • Configure Shared Folders (Optional)—The default setting allows open access to the shared folders. To secure the shared folders, configure the Active Directory mode or Local User Access mode. • Configure the Simplified User Interface (SUI) Feature (Optional)—To allow end users access to the Video Conversion Interface to encode and share videos, configure the SUI feature. • Create Folder Attendant Directory and Watch (Optional)—Configure Folder Attendant to monitor directories and to automatically initiate job processing when new or updated media/XML files appear. • Create Profiles—The Cisco MXE 3500 comes with a set of default profiles. Customize these profiles or create new profiles for your deployment. Do not overwrite the default profiles. Use Save As to modify an existing default profile with your new configuration settings. Troubleshooting For hardware failure issues, contact Cisco or your authorized Cisco reseller for instructions. To troubleshoot other hardware issues, see the Cisco UCS C-Series Servers Troubleshooting Guide. For software troubleshooting information, see the “Troubleshooting Chapter” in the Administration Guide for Cisco MXE 3500 Release 3.3.
