cisco call manager

You have just logged in your cisco server by admin user. What exactly you want to do or what do you expect to see? To understand Cisco Call Manager, you need to know VoiIP and its command syntax. You can start learning the syntax via show command. Check this article:

thanks for the reply if i try any of them it does not work
i was expecting to get into the call manager database after i loggin in the first time-it would and is like a windows interface program-now im stuck in a muddle

What OS did you install on this server?

K

I thought your are in Linux command. If you are, type startX to go in Linux GUI interface.

K

ya its on a linux os tried that i dont know if its cisco or linux commands they need i get past the cisco call manager bit first and than it goes admin>this is where i get stuck

type exit or quit to get out and log back in using root user then you can use startx

K

The command is logout

K

i tried that do i did a reboot as well but i come back to the same place

did you loggin with root instead of admin?

K

it goes to admin by default i tried using root no good

OK. I need to clarify this with you. You are in Linux command mode. Are you familiar with Linux?
what happen if you 'logout' and log back in using root. I don't know why you can't login root unless you forgot its(root) password


K

By the way, can you try this command to open another startx session on admin user in case that you cannot login with root:
startx -- :1

K

thats what i dont know -the cisco call manager is installed on a linux os that much i know
it comes up with the platform command line interface(after i log into the cisco CM) than
>admin

How are you connecting to the machine? How are you logging in?

You're logged in via the Command Line Interface (CLI) right now so it's expecting configuration commands via CLI. something like "show users" What are you trying to accomplish? as benhanson notes, typically you would doo this through the web interface rather than the CLI.

What version of CM or CME are you running?

thanks for the reply-as i said above i do not know what commands i need to input -as anyone experience of installing it-it comes up with admin> after i entered the call manager -its a black screen

I haven't yet installed CM 5.x.  I've been using CM 3.x and 4.x for about 3 years now.  All of the config is done via web interface, and from what I've read of 5.x it is no different.  So, I'm assuming you set an ip address during the setup?  Did you try and go to that IP address using a web browser?

see its not connected to the network in anyway for now

But did you specify an IP address during the config?  I'm pretty sure web administration is the norm, so you may need to hook it up so you can use another machine with IE or Firefox to do the config.

oh ya i did give it an ip address on another v lan - i suppose i could try hook it up to a port and try get onto via a browser

ya its the web interface i need to use i guess just after reading it there
