SNTtc Installation instructions
-------------------------------

A SNTtc installation requires two file: The framework (ie snttc2.2.4_linux.zip) and the platform module (ie. tc.3.0.0.zip).
These files are available for download at http://gospirent.com/mfg.

NOTE: If you are installing SNTtc on a Windows PC, you may also need to install the Spirent TestCenter GUI (available at
      http://support.spirent.com). If you load SNTtc and the Spirent TestCenter module and get an error, then you will
      probably need the Spirent TestCenter GUI as well.
      

A: Installing the framework
---------------------------
1. Move the snttcX.X.X_unix.zip file to the directory where you want to install SNTtc.
2. Delete/Backup any old version:
    eg. mv snttc ./backup/snttc1-30-2007
3. Extract the framework archive with "unzip snttcX.X.X_YYYY.zip". The "snttc" directory will be created automatically.


B: Installing the platform module
---------------------------------
1. Move the platform module (eg. tc.3.2.0.zip) to the "snttc/modulearchive" directory. DO NOT unzip this file. It will be
   automatically be extracted when you load the module from within SNTtc.


C: Launching the SNTtc command-line
-----------------------------------
1. Change to the new "snttc" directory.

Windows
2. Double-click on the "snttc.bat" or "snttc.exe" executable to start SNTtc.
3. Once you see the "SNT>" prompt, load the Spirent TestCenter module by typing "module load tc".

Linux/Solaris
2. Type "./snttc tc". This will load SNTtc and the Spirent TestCenter module.
   NOTE: If you see an error while loading, you may have to adjust the snttc directory's permissions. Use the command
         "chmod -R 777 ./snttc" from the parent directory of the SNTtc installation.


D: Restoring an older version of SNTtc
--------------------------------------
1. Make a copy of the current snttc directory (mv snttc ./backup/snttc<current date>).
2. Move the older version of SNTtc into place (mv ./backup/snttc<backup date> ./snttc).
