Run the Setup Program

Step 1

Reformat the USB device using FAT16 or FAT32 to free up all the space.

Step 2

Plug in the USB device to the local system and launch Fedora Media Writer.

Step 3

Click Browse from the Use existing Live CD area and select the Cisco ISE ISO file.

Step 4

(If there is only one USB device connected to the local system, it is selected automatically) Select the USB device from

the Target Device drop down.

Step 5

Click Create Live USB.

The progress bar indicates the progress of the bootable USB creation. After this process is complete, the contents of

the USB drive is available in the local system that you used to run the USB tool. There are two text files that you must

manually update before you can install Cisco ISE.

Step 6

From the USB drive, open the following text files in a text editor:

• isolinux/

• syslinux/syslinux.cfg

• EFI/BOOT/grub.cfg

Step 7

Replace the term "cdrom" in both the files.

• If you have a SNS 3415 appliance, replace the term "cdrom" with "hd:sda1" in both the files.

• If you have a SNS 3495, 3515, or 3595 appliance, replace the term "cdrom" with "hd:sdb1" in both the files.

Specifically, replace all instances of the "cdrom" string. For example, replace

ks=cdrom/ks.cfg

with

ks=hd:sdb1:/ks.cfg

Step 8

Save the files and exit.

Step 9

Safely remove the USB device from the local system.

Step 10

Plug in the bootable USB device to the Cisco ISE appliance, restart the appliance, and boot from the USB drive to

install Cisco ISE.

Run the Setup Program

This section describes the setup process to configure the ISE server.

The setup program launches an interactive command-line interface (CLI) that prompts you for the required

parameters. An administrator can use the console or a dumb terminal to configure the initial network settings

and provide the initial administrator credentials for the ISE server using the setup program. This setup process

is a one-time configuration task.

Note

If you are integrating with Active Directory (AD), it is best to use the IP and subnet addresses from a dedicated

Site created specifically for ISE. Consult with the staff in your organization responsible for AD and retrieve

the relevant IP and subnet addresses for your ISE nodes prior to installation and configuration.
