Note If you will log into nodes running CTC software earlier than Software Release 4.6, uninstall JRE 1.4.2
and reinstall JRE 1.3.1_2. To run Software R4.7, R5.0, or R6.0, uninstall JRE 1.3.1_2 and reinstall
JRE 1.4.2.
Note JRE 1.4.2 requires Netscape 7.x or Internet Explorer 6.x.
Step 1 Verify that your computer has the following:
• Processor—Pentium III, 700 Mhz or faster
• RAM—384 MB recommended, 512 MB optimum
• Hard drive—20 GB hard drive recommended with at least 50 MB of space available
• Operating system—Windows 98 (1st and 2nd editions), Windows NT 4.0 (with Service Pack 6a),
Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 3), or Windows XP Home
If your operating system is Windows NT 4.0, verify that Service Pack 6a or later is installed. From
the Start menu, choose Programs > Administrative Tools > Windows NT Diagnostics and check
the service pack on the Version tab of the Windows NT Diagnostics dialog box. If Service Pack 6a
or later is not installed, do not continue. Install Service Pack 6a following the computer upgrade
procedures for your site.
Note Processor and RAM requirements are guidelines. CTC performance is faster if your
computer has a faster processor and more RAM.
Step 2 Insert the Cisco ONS 15454 Release 6.0 software CD into your computer CD drive. The installation
program begins running automatically. If it does not start, navigate to the CD directory and double-click
setup.exe.
Purpose This task installs the CTC online user manuals, Acrobat Reader 6.0.1,
JRE 1.4.2, and the CTC JAR files. JRE 1.4.2 is required to run Release 6.0.
Preinstalling the CTC JAR files saves time at initial login. If the JAR files
are not installed, they are downloaded from the TCC2/TCC2P card the first
time you log in.
