First Boot¶

Virtual Console¶

Find the newly created virtual machine in XenCenter Resource Pane.
Select the newly created virtual machine to see the Properties tabs.
Select the Console tab to view Control Domain (Dom0) console.

Root Password¶

When the newly created VM is booted for the first time, you’ll be prompted to change the root password.

Important

Use the standard INVITE password for the root account.

Device Configuration¶

Subnet	Network	Network Mask	Bit	Purpose
OAM&P	172.24.12.0	255.255.252.0	/22	Management Network
MCAT	172.17.70.0	255.255.255.0	/24	Core MCAT Network
Client	d.d.d.d	d.d.d.d		Client Connections

IP addressing follows a common host number convention. Where all the IP addresses end with the same digit. ___.___.___.254 Where a client specified subnet allows. The host number must be used for all the internal subnets used on the MCAT platform.:

# Default Host Number = 254
OAM&P = 172.24.15.254
MCAT = 172.17.70.254
Client = 192.168.0.254

Warning

Only the OAM&P network (eth0) should have the Default gateway IP and DNS server settings. Leave these settings empty for other network interfaces.

Important

Some carriers require the network interface is the primary connection. This requires a different connectivity model to be used.

OAM&P `eth0`¶

Change the Static IP to use the correct host number.

MCAT `eth1`¶

Change the Static IP to use the correct host number.

Adding Network Interfaces¶

For each additional network interface needed to support the client, perform the following steps.

Select New Device.

Choose Ethernet as the device type.

Select Add.

Enter the Network Configuration details.

The Name and Device should increment from the last configured interface. eth2, eth3, eth4, etc…

Warning

Only the OAM&P network (eth0) should have the Default gateway IP and DNS server settings. Leave these settings empty for other network interfaces.

Select Save once all the devices have been configured.

DNS configuration¶

The hostname may be the long INVITE CLLI styled ID or the short version.

invttmtjwx03.tmtj.invite-comm.jp
-or-
wx03.tmtj.invite-comm.jp

Hint

The hostname can be set at this stage in the process -or- by directly editing /etc/sysconfig/network. Changing the hostname directly requires the VM to be rebooted again.

# /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=wx03.tmtj.invite-comm.jp

Enter the DNS Configuration details.

Field	Setting
`Hostname`	hostname `.tmtj.invite-comm.jp`
`Primary DNS`	`172.24.15.51` internal
`Secondary DNS`	`172.24.15.52` internal
`Tertiary DNS`	`8.8.8.8` external for backup
`DNS search path`	`tmtj.invite-comm.jp invite-comm.jp`

Select OK

Select Save&Quit

Authentication Configuration¶

The first boot process with prompt for Authentication Configuration settings. This may be skipped.

Select Next and the system will reboot

Done

Attention

You can now connect to the system via ssh.

Tip

You may run the sys-unconfig command at this point. It will shut down the virtual machine returning to the First Boot condition. This is helpful to create a clone of the virtual machine in the XenConsole with all the interfaces and networking configured. Follow the above steps for the clone and leave the setting untouched for the original.
