Software Installation and Setup - IMG 1010

 

Overview on Downloading Software to IMG 1010

The IMG 1010 can get its software load in one of a three different ways.

  1. Software is loaded through use of an FTP server. The Linux Server that is setup for use with GCEMS can also be setup to use as an FTP server. See the procedure in this topic below

  2. Software is loaded through use of an SD Card which can be inserted into the front panel of the IMG 1010

Before You Begin

 

Linux Services Needed

The services such as DHCP and SNTP can be run on the Linux Server that the GCEMS is loaded on or can be set up to run on a separate machine. For ease of configuration the services should run from the same machine. The services below are installed on the GCEMS server when Linux Red Hat Enterprise is installed. These services can be used to work with the IMG 1010

 

Miscellaneous Information

Note: If you purchased your server through Dialogic or IMG 1010 supplier the software should already be installed along with all services. If this is the case then setting IP addresses and retrieving the latest version of software is needed and most steps below can be avoided. If software is already installed proceed to IMG 1010-Downloading System Software. If GCEMS server was purchased without software or the customer will provide its own server then follow instructions below.

 

Procedure:

  1. If not already configured when Linux Red Hat Enterprise OS was installed then a Linux user must be configured. This user will be given the name excelsw and is the user configured to run the GCEMS software etc. See the Configuring the Linux User (excelsw) to configure the excelsw user.

  2. Once the Linux user is created the next step is to install the GCEMS software onto the GCEMS server. See Installing GCEMS Software for information on accomplishing this.

  3. After the GCEMS software is installed then the GCEMS software must be configured and the nfs, dhcpd, vsftpd, and ntp services need to be configured and started. See Configure GCEMS and Start Linux Services link for more information on how to accomplish this.

  4. The software is loaded, the GCEMS is configured and the Linux Services are configured and running. The next step is to download the IMG system software from the GCEMS server to the IMG. See IMG 1010-Downloading IMG System Software or IMG 1004 Downloading IMG System Software.

  5. Once software is downloaded and GCEMS software has been installed the GCEMS will need to be started. See Starting GateControl EMS topic on how to start the GCEMS application.

  6. Once GCEMS is started the ClientView will need to be started. See Starting ClientView on how to start the ClientView application.

  7. Once ClientView is started and you can configure the IMG 1010 the next step is to configure the GCEMS so that you can get remote access. See Configuring Remote Desktop for information on configuring and running RealVNC remote access.
