2. _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__I_n_f_o_r_m_a_t_i_o_n
This chapter provides product-specific information which is
supplemental to the online _P_e_r_s_o_n_a_l _S_y_s_t_e_m _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n
_G_u_i_d_e and the _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_o_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e.
2.1 _I_S_D_N__S_u_b_s_y_s_t_e_m_s
ISDN includes these subsystems:
_i_s_d_n__e_o_e._s_w._i_s_d_n Base software required to use
ISDN.
_i_s_d_n__e_o_e._m_a_n._i_s_d_n On-line manual pages for ISDN.

2.3 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
Your system must be running IRIX release 6.5, and the UUCP
and PPP software must be installed to use the ISDN software.
ISDN is supported only on Indy, O2, and OCTANE systems.
+o To check your IRIX release level, open a shell window
by choosing "Unix Shell" from the Desktop toolchest,
then type:
uuuunnnnaaaammmmeeee ----aaaa
You'll see a message similar to this:
IIIIRRRRIIIIXXXX <_h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e> 6666....5555 00001111222288882222111100007777 IIIIPPPP33332222
This sample message shows that version 6.5 is
installed.
+o To check whether the UUCP and PPP subsystems are
installed, type:
vvvveeeerrrrssssiiiioooonnnnssss eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....uuuuuuuuccccpppp eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....pppppppppppp
If they're both installed, you see these lines:
IIII eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....pppppppppppp <<<<ddddaaaatttteeee>>>> PPPPooooiiiinnnntttt----ttttoooo----PPPPooooiiiinnnntttt PPPPrrrroooottttooooccccoooollll SSSSooooffffttttwwwwaaaarrrreeee
IIII eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....uuuuuuuuccccpppp <<<<ddddaaaatttteeee>>>> UUUUUUUUCCCCPPPP UUUUttttiiiilllliiiittttiiiieeeessss
(Notice the ``I'' at the beginning of the line.) If
either one is not installed, install it along with your
ISDN software as shown in the next section.
2.4 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_i_n_g__t_h_e__S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e
All subsystems in this product can be installed using the
IRIX installation method, which means they can be installed
while your system is up and running. The software
installation instructions included here provide a quick
overview of how to install the software from a CD drive
that's connected directly to your system. To install it
from a remote CD, or for more detailed information, see
Chapter 4 of the online _P_e_r_s_o_n_a_l _S_y_s_t_e_m _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n
_G_u_i_d_e, or see the _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_o_r'_s
_G_u_i_d_e.
To install the software, follow these steps:
- 3 -
1. Log in as root in a shell window by typing:
llllooooggggiiiinnnn rrrrooooooootttt
If a prompt for a password appears, type the password,
then press <Enter>. If a prompt appears but the root
account has no password, just press <Enter>.
2. Install the software:
+o Insert the IRIX 6.5 CD into your CD drive.
+o In the shell window, type:
iiiinnnnsssstttt ----ffff ////CCCCDDDDRRRROOOOMMMM////ddddiiiisssstttt
+o At the inst> prompt, type:
kkkk ****
+o If UUCP or PPP are not already installed, at the
inst> prompt, type:
iiii eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....uuuuuuuuccccpppp eeeeooooeeee....sssswwww....pppppppppppp
omitting eoe.sw.uucp or eoe.sw.ppp if you found
that either was already installed (in the
previous section).
+o At the inst> prompt, type:
iiii iiiissssddddnnnn____eeeeooooeeee ****
+o At the inst> prompt, type:
ggggoooo
+o The software is installed when you see this
message:
IIIInnnnssssttttaaaallllllllaaaattttiiiioooonnnn aaaannnndddd////oooorrrr rrrreeeemmmmoooovvvvaaaallll ssssuuuucccccccceeeeeeeeddddeeeedddd....

+o At the inst> prompt, type:
qqqquuuuiiiitttt
You may see some exit messages. When you see the
# prompt, go on to the next step.

3. Update the system software (the kernel) with the newly
installed software by typing:
////eeeettttcccc////aaaauuuuttttooooccccoooonnnnffffiiiigggg
The system software will be updated when you restart
your system after configuring the ISDN software.
The software is now installed, but is not yet configured for
use. Use the information in the online _I_S_D_N _U_s_e_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e to:
+o Order the necessary ISDN hardware and services.
+o Set up the ISDN hardware.
+o Configure the ISDN software.
+o Use your ISDN connection.
To view the online _I_S_D_N _U_s_e_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e, follow these steps:
1. Choose ``On-Line Books'' from the Help toolchest.
2. In the IRIS InSight Library window, double-click the
book on the SGI_EndUser bookshelf that's entitled
``ISDN User's Guide''.
3. For more information on using the online book, choose
a topic from its Help menu.
You may find it helpful to print out Chapter 2 of the online
book, as it covers hardware setup that you may want to
perform while the system is powered off.

You must edit the configuration files before ISDN will work.
See the online _I_S_D_N _U_s_e_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e for information on how to
set up these configuration files. To access the online book,
choose ``On-Line Books'' from the Help toolchest, then
double-click the book's icon.

2.8 _H_e_l_p_f_u_l__H_i_n_t_s
Verify that ISDN has been certified in your country before
connecting your to an ISDN line. Connecting uncertified
ISDN equipment to your national ISDN network may be a
violation of local law.
ISDN is not a "plug-and-play" technology. The online _I_S_D_N
_U_s_e_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e is an excellent source of information on how to
configure and use ISDN. To access the online book, choose
``On-Line Books'' from the Help toolchest, then double-click
the book's icon.
2.8.1 _I_n_d_y The ISDN port is on the back of the Indy and is
labeled with an icon of a telephone. It may be covered with
a sticker with a red triangle on it. Remove the sticker
when you are ready to connect the Indy to the NT1. See the
_I_n_d_y _W_o_r_k_s_t_a_t_i_o_n _O_w_n_e_r_s _G_u_i_d_e if you are still unsure where
the ISDN port is. See the online _I_S_D_N _U_s_e_r_s'_s _G_u_i_d_e for
detailed instructions on how to connect the Indy to the NT1.
