| Hardware Requirements: |
|
|
|
|
| CPU: |
Single or dual CPU systems with Intel Pentium or 100% compatible
processor (we recommend: PIII, 1GHz or better) |
| RAM: |
128Mbyte (we recommend: 256MByte or more) |
| Hard disk: |
20GByte IDE or SCSI, for list of controllers supported, see below.
For Manager systems with high data volumes, you must use a hard
disk of sufficient size. If you wish to use a RAID controller, we
recommend controllers by ICP-Vortex as the ICPCON utility for
repairing a faulty RAID is directly integrated in the PacketAlarm
console.
You can also use the other RAID controllers listed; however, it may
not always be possible to the RAID without rebooting the system.
VarySys Technologies makes no guarantee regarding the correct
operation of tehse controllers.
A number of hard disks which are not clearly managed by a RAID
controller for PacketAlarm, are not supported.
CDROM: IDE or SCSI CDROM drive; for list of controllers supported, see
below. |
| CDROM: |
DE or SCSI CDROM drive; for list of controllers supported, see
below.
Only the following arrangement of hard disks and CD-ROM combinations is
supported:
| Hard disk bus |

|
| Network card: |
Only PCI-based network cards are supported; for list of cards
supported, see below. For a sensor system whose scan interface is
intended to operate in stealth mode, at least two network cards are
required, or one network card with several interfaces.
For optimal performance, network cards with a large reception buffer
and interrupt reduction are required. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Hardware recommendations for the scan interface: |
|
|
|
|
| 100 Mbps: |
Intel PRO/100S (Dual Port) server adapter |
| 1000 Mbps: |
Intel PRO/1000 series server adapters |
| 1000 Mbps: |
SysKonnect SK98xx series adapters |
|
