Performing Complex Configurations
After you have installed your SCE 2000 platform hardware, checked all external connections, turned on
the system power, allowed the system to boot up, and performed the initial system configuration, you
might need to perform more complex configurations, which are beyond the scope of this publication.
For further information on system and interface configuration, refer to the following documents:
• Cisco Service Control Engine (SCE) Software Configuration Guide
• Cisco Service Control Engine (SCE) CLI Command Reference
Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions
After installing your SCE 2000 platform and connecting cables, complete the following steps to start
the SCE 2000 platform:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. Make sure the power cables are connected to the SCE 2000 platform.
2. Plug the AC power supply cables into the AC power source, or make sure the circuit breakers at the
DC panels are turned to the on position. Turn both power switches on.
3. Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating.
4. During the boot process, observe the following LEDs:
5. Observe the initialization process. When the system boot is complete, the console screen displays a
script and system banner similar to the following:
6. When you start up the SCE 2000 platform for the first time, the system automatically enters the
setup wizard, which prompts you for configuration information for initial system configuration. On
the console terminal, after the system displays the system banner and hardware configuration, you
will see the System Configuration Dialog prompt. (Refer to Connecting the Management Interfaces
and Performing Initial System Configuration for a complete description of the setup wizard.)
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1 Make sure the power cables are connected to the SCE 2000 platform.
Step 2 Plug the AC power supply cables into the AC power source, or make sure the circuit breakers at the DC
panels are turned to the on position. Turn both power switches on.
Step 3 Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating.
Step 4 During the boot process, observe the following LEDs:
• Both Power LEDs should be green.
• Bypass LED should be green while the SCE 2000 is on bypass and unlit when the bypass is turned
off.
• The Status LED should be a constant orange while booting. After a successful boot, the Status LED
is flashing green.
