I am having Ubuntu 14.04 at the moment. Appreciate if you have any example on that.

Best ask there or look into its documentation. cryptsetup is just the commandline tool, it has no connection to the boot-up process. Some distro-specific mechanism can call it though, e.g. from an initrd. If there is no distro-specific mechanism, then things get more messy.
