General information

Connecting the MCU 53x0

Before you start

IMPORTANT: Before installing the MCU 53x0, you must read the safety information at

http://www.cisco.com/go/telepresence/safety.

Task 1: Connect power

Connect the power connector on the rear of the unit to the power supply using the supplied power cable.

(There is no On/Off switch.)

Task 2: Connect to Ethernet Port A

Connect an Ethernet cable from Ethernet Port A to an Ethernet switch.

Failing to configure both sides of the Ethernet connection in the same way can result in packet loss,

leading to poor audio and video quality.

Only connect to Ethernet Port B if you need to connect the MCU to a second subnet.

Configuring the MCU 53x0

Task 3: Connect to the console port

1. Ensure power is connected to the MCU 53x0 and the Status LED is green.

2. Connect the console port of the unit to the serial port of your PC using the RJ45 to DB9 cable supplied.

3. Use a serial terminal program, such as Secure CRT or HyperTerminal, to connect to the unit. Set your

terminal software to the following settings:

lBaud rate: 38400

lData bits: 8

lParity: none

lStop bits: 1

lFlow control: none

4. Press Enter and the following command prompt appears on the terminal:

MCU:>

Task 4: Configure Ethernet Port A settings

The default setting for the MCU 53x0 Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch port to which you

connect the MCU 53x0 is not also set to auto-sensing mode, then you need to configure the device's

Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex mode.

Only connect to Ethernet Port B if you need to connect the MCU 53x0 to a second subnet.

Both ends of the Ethernet connection must be configured in the same way. For example, either

configure both ends of the link to be auto-sensing or configure both ends to operate at the same speed

and duplex.

Note:To establish a 1000Mbps connection, both ends of the link must be configured as auto-sensing.

nTo configure Ethernet Port A, enter the following for auto-sensing mode:

ethertype A auto

or to configure a speed and duplex, use the following command:

ethertype A <10 | 100> <half | full>

For example, to configure a full-duplex 100 Mbps link, enter:

ethertype A 100 full

nTo display the current configuration and status of the Ethernet ports, enter:

status

Task 5: (Optional) Assign an IP address to the MCU 53x0

The default setting for the MCU 53x0 is to use DHCP to obtain an IP address. You can assign a static IP

address if you prefer, or if a DHCP server is not available. If you want the IP address of the MCU 53x0 to be

assigned by your DHCP server, omit this step.

nTo assign a static IPv4 address to Port A, use the following command:

static A <IP address> <netmask> [<default gateway address>]

Cisco TelePresence MCU5300 Series Installation Guide Page 6 of 14

Configuring the MCU 53x0

For example, to assign an address of 192.168.1.2 where the default gateway is at 192.168.1.1, enter:

static A 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1

nTo manually specify a DNS server, use this command:

dns <DNS server address> [<secondary DNS server>][<domain>]

nTo revert to using DHCP after setting a static IPv4 address, use the following command:

dhcp -4 A

For information on assigning a static IPv6 address type help static. For information on assigning an

automatic IPv6 address type help dhcp or else see the online help.

Task 6: Discover the IP address of the MCU 53x0

1. To display the current status of the IP address, enter: status

If you have DHCP enabled on your network and you are allowing the MCU 53x0 to acquire its address

using DHCP, the IP address that has been acquired by Ethernet Port A will be shown; if you have

assigned a static IP address, that is the address that will be shown.

2. Make a note of the IP address. You will use this to access the web interface of the unit.

Note:When your MCU 53x0 has an IPaddress, you can add an entry for it on your DNSserver and use a

hostname to access the device's web interface.

Task 7: Log in to the MCU 53x0

To log in to the web interface of the device:

1. Use your browser to navigate to the IP address or hostname of the unit.

2. Enter the user name admin with no password, and click Log in.

The Home page is displayed.

Note: We recommend that you change the admin account to use a password as soon as possible. To do

that, go to Home and click Change password.

Configuring the MCU 53x0

(Optional) Clustering MCU 53x0s

Before you start

Up to two MCU 53x0s can be clustered to increase capacity. One of the MCU 53x0s acts as the master unit

and the second as a slave, and the cluster will provide the sum of the conferencing capacity of the individual

units.

For example, if you cluster two MCU 5320s, which each support up to ten 1080p participants, your cluster

will support up to twenty 1080p participants.

You may combine an MCU5310 with an MCU5320 in the cluster, provided that they are running identical

software versions. In this case, the MCU5320 must be configured as the master.

You will also need a Cisco TelePresence MCU 5300 Series Stacking Cable which must be ordered

separately. Please contact your reseller or go to www.cisco.com.

Task 1: Connect the devices using the stacking cable

1. If your stacking cable has protective tapes or caps on the ends, remove them so that the metal conductors

are visible within the plug.

2. Plug the ends of the stacking cable into the Link sockets on the rear of the MCU 53x0s. Check the

orientation of the plug when inserting it into the Link socket.

3. To remove the cable, pull the release mechanism to detach the plug. Do not pull directly on the plug.

Task 2: Configure the master device

One of the MCU 53x0s must be configured as the master device and the other as a slave.

1. Log in to the web interface of the device you have selected as the master.

In a mixed cluster, you must use the MCU5320 as the master.

2. Go to Settings > Media ports.

3. Select Master from the Cluster mode drop down menu.

4. Click Apply changes.

5. Click OK to restart the device and apply the changes.

6. Go to Status > Cluster to confirm that the device has been correctly configured as the master.

Task 3: Configure the slave device

1. Log in to the web interface of the other device.

2. Go to Settings > Media ports.

3. Select Slave from the Cluster mode drop down menu.

4. Click Apply changes.

5. Click OK to restart the device and apply the changes.

6. Go to Status > Cluster to confirm that the device has been correctly configured as the slave.

Cisco TelePresence MCU5300 Series Installation Guide Page 8 of 14

(Optional) Clustering MCU 53x0s

When you have configured the units as master and slave, do not use the web interface of the slave unit for

normal operations. The slave web interface is only used for upgrading software and for network configuration.

Task 4: (Optional) Register the master with Cisco VCS

Control

You can use a cluster of MCUs with a Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (Cisco VCS

Control), just as you would use a single MCU. To do this you must register the master MCU with the Cisco

VCS Control.

The Cisco VCS will not indicate that the MCU is part of a cluster; the device type will continue to show as

MCU.

To display the status of registered devices on the Cisco VCS Control, go to Status > Registrations > By

device.

Task 5: (Optional) Configure Cisco TMSto recognize the

cluster

You can manage a cluster of MCUs through the Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (Cisco TMS) as you

would manage a single MCU. To do this, only the master needs to be added to Cisco TMS.

Note:There are some issues with managing slave MCUs in Cisco TMS. To prevent these issues:

nDo not add new slave MCUs to Cisco TMS.

nCompletely remove from Cisco TMS any MCU that you wish to configure as a slave. You will need to

reconfigure any conferences that were scheduled to run on that device to run on the master instead.

Remove a slave from Cisco TMS

For any MCU that is or will be configured as a slave:

1. Log in to Cisco TMS.

2. Go to Systems > Purge Systems.

3. Select the devices you want to delete.

4. Click Purge Systems.

Add the master to Cisco TMS

There is no specific configuration needed to add a new master MCU to Cisco TMS; you can add it as you

would do for a single MCU.

However, if you reconfigure an MCU that Cisco TMS already manages, to become the master in a cluster,

then Cisco TMS will not recognize the increased conferencing capacity until you force a refresh on Cisco

TMS.

1. Log in to Cisco TMS.

2. Go to Systems > Navigator.

3. Click on your MCU in the left hand pane.

4. Go to Settings.

Cisco TelePresence MCU5300 Series Installation Guide Page 9 of 14

(Optional) Clustering MCU 53x0s

5. Click Force Refresh.

Cisco TMS refreshes its details of the device and the Max Number of Video Calls will increase to show

the increased port count.

Note: Refreshing an MCU that has been configured as a slave will not cause Cisco TMS to decrease its

record of that device's port count. You must remove the slave from Cisco TMS and refresh the master.
