Cisco Internet Streamer CDS Overview
With the Content Delivery System (CDS) software installed, the CDE functions as a Content Delivery
System Manager (CDSM), Service Engine (SE), or Service Router (SR). The CDSM provides a
graphical user interface (GUI) to manage registered Service Engines and Se rvice Routers. The CDS
solution addresses the need to distribute and receive high-bandwidth, media-rich content across the
Internet without performance losses or content delivery delays.
CDS software offers the following content-based services:
1
OL-13478-03
• Content caching and hosting
• Proxy services
• Content replication
• Video streaming
T o deploy Cisco SEs with Cisco CD S software within your e xisting netw ork, your netw ork must support
Cisco IOS software.
The CDE refers to the hardware that can run one or two Content Delivery Applications (CDAs). Each
CDE can be configured with a specific device mode. Each de vice mode def ines the set of CDAs that can
run on the CDEs. As part of the CDE installation and initialization, you are asked to select a device
mode. The following device modes are supported:
NoteThe CDE100 supports device-mode configuration and can be configured with the CDS 2.0-2.1 software
to operate only as a CDSM.
The CDE200 supports device-mode configuration and can be configured with the CDS 2.0-2.1 software
to operate as an SE, SR, or a CDSM.
Cisco TV CDS Overview
The Cisco TV CDS is a high performance, open architecture vehicle capable of delivering a wide range
of advanced video applications. The Cisco TV CDS consists of the following elements:
• Intel Xeon architecture servers
• Linux operating system
• OnDemand software
• Video Accelerator software
Chapter 1 Overview of the Content Delivery Engines
OnDemand Application
In order for cable operators to successfully deliver Video On Demand (VOD) services, a number of
system elements must be present and work together . The OnDemand appl ication is a component of next
generation, open architecture VOD systems. The OnDemand application delivers a highly scalable and
reliable solution for ingest, storage, content distribution, personalization and streaming of OnDemand
Video.
The Cisco Video On Demand solution has three ma jor elements:
• A Vault Group consisting of one or more CDE200s or CDE400s. The Vault Group is resp onsible fo r
ingest and reliable storage of Video On Demand content. The number of CDE200s or CDE400s in
the Vault Group is driven by the amount of content that the Video On Demand system offers.
• One or more Streaming Groups each consisting of one or more CDE300s. The Streaming Group is
responsible for the personalization and streaming of Video OnDemand in response to user requests.
The number of CDE300s and Streaming Groups is determined by the number of Video On Demand
streams deployed and by the topology that best suits your i ndividual network.
• A CDSM (CDE100 or CDE200). The CDSM is used to manage the Vaults and Streamers, collect
event logs, and host reporting tools.
NoteIn smaller systems, the CDE200 Integrated Streamer Vault (ISV) can be used, where the Vault and
Streamer functionality exist in one CDE200 ISV.
Video Accelerator Software
Cisco has developed the Video Accelerator, a unique technology that facilitates the rapid movement of
content between Vaults and Streamers while keeping required bandwidth to a minimum. To accomplish
this, the Video Accelerator uses a form of caching across Gigabit Ethernet networks. All content is held
reliably on the Vault servers and a large amount, but not all, of the content is also contained on the
Chapter 1 Overview of the Content Delivery Engines

210823
211765
Streamer s. The Video Accelerat or kernel software ensures content on the Streamers is always the most
popular content; that is, the content requested by the largest number of subscribers. The Video
Accelerator is responsible for the following:
• Content Storage
• Streaming
• Bandwidth usage for ingests
• Bandwidth usage for streaming
• Mirroring content among Vault servers
• Decisions on content retention on Streamer servers

Input/Output Ports and Connectors
The CDEs support the following I/O connectors on the rear of the device:
• Ethernet connector
• Serial connector
• Video and audio connectors (on optional adapter)
CautionOnce the product installation is complete, all I/O cables, except those installed in the Ethernet ports,
must be disconnected from the CDE to maintain EMC compliance. Any other cable connections are
temporary and are only used to initialize the system. All PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, USB interface,
serial console interface, and VGA interface cables must be disconnected from the CDE’s front and rear
I/O ports.
Figure 1-17 shows the location of the CDE100 back panel ports and connectors.
CautionIn some CDE200 chassis, the streaming interface network interface card (NIC) is installed in slots 4 and
5 (counting from the left-most slot). In this hardware configuration, the Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on
the motherboard are addressed as interfaces 3/0 and 4/0, and the interfaces on the NICs are detected as
1/0, 2/0, 5/0, and 6/0. The interface numbering must be taken into consideration when configuring IP
addresses and port channels.
Figure 1-19 shows the location of the CDE300 back panel ports and connectors.

Site Requirements
This section provides site requirements for the CDEs. Y ou should verify the site power prior to installing
the CDEs.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
The CDEs have no user-serviceable parts inside their chassis. The only field-replaceable units are the
AC and DC power supplies and hard disk drives.
Warning
No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not open.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when disk drives, electronic cards or
components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. The following are
guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
• Connect the equipment end of the strap to a bare metal, unpainted surface on the rackmount.
Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Content Delivery Engines
Site Requirements
• When removing or installing a component, use any available handles, ejector levers, or captive
installation screws. These devices prevent accidental removal, prov ide proper grounding for the
system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.
CautionFor safety, periodically che ck the resistance value of the antistatic strap . The measurement should be
between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).
Environmental, Physical, and Power Specifications
The CDEs are tested to the environmental specifications indicated in Table 2-1. All testing is performed

or servicing the unit in the rack.
If AC Power Supplies Are Installed
When installing the CDEs, use the provided AC power cords.
Mains AC power disconnect: The AC power cord(s) is considered the mains disconnect for the server
and must be readily accessible when installed. If the individual server power cord(s) will not be readily
accessible for disconnection then you must install an AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This
main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire rack,
not just to the server(s).
Grounding the rack installation: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, you must include
a third wire safety ground conductor with the rack installation. If the server power cord is plugged into
an AC outlet that is part of the rack, then you must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If the
server power cord is plugged into a wall AC outlet, the safety ground conductor in the power cord
Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Content Delivery Engines
provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the
rack and other devices installed in it. This system is intended for connection to a Common Bonding
Network (CBN) as defined by NEBS GR-1089.
Overcurrent protection: The server is designed for an AC line voltage source with up to 20 amperes of
overcurrent protection per cord feed. If the po wer system for the equipment rack is installed on a branch
circuit with more than 20 amperes of protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the
server. The overall current rating of a configured server is less than 6 amperes.
If DC Power Supplies Are Installed
Connection with a DC (Direct Current) source should only be performed by trained service personnel.
The server with DC input is to be installed i n a Restricted Access Location in accorda nce with articles
110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The DC source must be
electrically isolated by double or reinforced insulation from any hazardous AC source. The DC source
must be capable of providing up to 300 watts of continuous power per feed pair.
Mains DC power disconnect: You are responsible for installing a properly rated DC power disconnect
for the server system. This mains disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as
controlling power to the server. The circuit breaker of a centralized DC power system may be used as a
disconnect device when easily accessible and should be rated no more than 10 amps.
Grounding the server: This server is intended for installation with an isolated DC return (DC-I) and is
to be installed in a Common Bonding Net work (CBN) per NEBS GR-1089. To avoid the potential for an
electrical shock hazard, you must reliably connect an earth grounding conduct or to th e serv er. The earth
grounding conductor must be #14 to #10 AWG connected to the earth ground stud(s) on the rear of the
server. The safety ground conductor should be connected to the chassis stud with a Listed closed
two-hole crimp terminal having 5/8-inch pitch. The nuts on the chassis earth ground studs should be
installed with a 10 in-lb torque. The safety ground conductor provides proper grounding only for the
server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
Overcurrent protection: Overcurrent protection circuit breakers must be provided as part of each host
equipment rack and must be incorporated in the field wiring between the DC source and the server. The
branch circuit protection shall be rated minimum 75 Vdc, 10 A maximu m per feed pair. If the DC power
system for the equipment rack is installed with more than 10 amperes of protection, you must provide
supplemental protection for the server. The overall current rating of a maximum configured server is 8
amperes.

Initially Configuring a CDE
This section provides the steps to perform th e initial softw are conf iguration after a CD E has been loaded
with a CDS software image for the first time. The initial configuration must be done on all CDEs (SEs,
SRs, and CDSM) in a network.
Assigning the Primary Interface
The CDE must be configured with a primar y interface that acts as the management interface for the CDE.
Any interface in the CDE can be configured as the primary interface. Interface GigabitEthernet 1/0 is
chosen by default to be the primary interface.
Enter the following commands to assign a primary interface:
Chapter 4 Installing the Internet Streamer CDS Software and Initially Configuring a CDE

Press any key to continue
Verifying the CDSM
CDE# configure terminal
CDE# cms enable
This process initiates database services o n the device that you just c onfigured.
NoteOnce the IP default gateway has been set, we recommend you ping the outside network to verify it is
reachable. Then verify that the CDSM is reachable.
Step 2After you have run the Setup utility on each SE or SR, they register with the CDSM. Save the
configuration by entering the following command:
CDE# copy running-config startup-config
Verifying the CDSM
Perform the following steps to ve rify that the CDSM is operational:
Step 1Launch a web browser and enter the CDSM IP address. The CDSM Login page appears (see
Chapter 4 Installing the Internet Streamer CDS Software and Initially Configuring a CDE
Step 3From the CDSM Main menu, select the Devices tab. A list of all your registered Service Engines and
Service Routers appears (see
Figure 4-20Devices Page
Figure 4-20).
Verifying the CDSM
Step 4Verify that the devices you configured for your CDS network are listed.
Step 5If a device is not listed, restart the CMS for that device by using either the console or Telnet connection
and entering the following commands in global configuration mode:
CDE(config)# no cms enable
CDE(config)# cms enable
The installation is now complete. Refer to the Cisco Internet Streamer CDS 2.0-2.1 Software
Configuration Guide for information on configuring and using the CDS. See the
This chapter presents troubleshooting procedures for the Cisco CDS Release 2.0-2.1 hardware and
recommended actions for a variety of problems. This chapter contains the following sections:
• Troubleshooting Ethernet Adapters, page 5-1
• Troubleshooting SATA Drives, page 5-2
Troubleshooting Ethernet Adapters
If you are having problems wit h any of your Ethernet adapters, perform the follo wing steps to isolate the
problem:
Step 1Make sure the power is applied to the system.
Step 2Verify that the Ethernet cable is of Category 5E quality, or better.
Step 3Try replacing the cable with a known good cable.
CHAPTER
5
Step 4Ensure that the switch at the other end of the Ethernet cable is powered up. V eri fy that th e LED is o n for
each switch port that is connected to an adapter.
Do not be alarmed if an LED is not lit on an adapter when power is applied to the syst em. LED
illumination at system startup is dependent on the version of the adapter. LEDs on all configured
adapters should be lit once the CDS has been started.
Step 5Verify that the port configuration on the switch. Most scenarios require that the ports be set to
autonegotiate.
Step 6As a final troubleshooting technique, it may be necessary to download and run the adapter diagnostics
from the appropriate adapter vendor.
The on-board adapter used is a Broadcom component. V ault servers also use a single-port 3Com adapter
and dual-port Intel adapters. CDEs use dual-port and quad-port Intel adapters. Driver and diagnostic
utilities are available on each vendor’s website.
You may also contact C isco Technical Support at this URL:
The CDE200 and CDE400 contain SATA drives. When working properly, the CDS detects the SATA
drives and reports the number of drives in the system.
In the CDE200, there are twelve 500-GB SATA drives. In the CD E400, there are three SATA controller
cards. Each controller card controls a total of 8 SATA drives for a total of 24 SATA drives. The SATA
controller cards are located in slots 1, 5, and 6 counting from the right as you are facing the rear of the
chassis (see
If the system reports that there is a problem with the SATA drives (such as the drives not being
recognized or are being reported as bad), perform the following steps:
Step 1Reboot the system.
Step 2Reseat the drive in question (see the “Installing or Removing Disk Drives” section on page 3-9).
Step 3If the problem persists, replace the drive with a known good drive. If the problem still persists, contact

DC Power Overview
The CDE200, CDE300 and CDE400 can accept DC power (CDE100s do not have a DC power option).
The CDEs can accept power from a –48 VDC (–42 to –56 VDC) source that connects to one (primary)
or two (secondary/redundant) –48 VDC power modules (PMs). Each DC PM must be connected to a
dedicated 60A regulated source.

NoteIn this chapter, the power supply is referred to as a “power module.”
The CDE200 ships fully populated with two DC PMs installed in the PM slots on the rear of the chassis;
two DC power cables are shipped separately. The chassis has one building ground stud and one PM
ground stud. The minimum cabling requirement for connecting DC power to a CDE200 is one PM

The DC ground connection in the CDE serves as a functional earth point to maintain the full EMI and
EMC integrity of the equipment. The purpose is to mitigate the damaging effects of electrostatic
discharge. This connection should be installed by a trained service person and the equipment is to be
installed per local code or local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). The build ing g ro und wire should
not exceed 3 meters in length and be sized similarity to the conductors used for the DC power
connections (–48 VDC and +Return).
