Chapter 7. Netfinity Manager system requirements The minimum system requirements for Netfinity Manager for Windows NT are: Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 or later Approximately 17 MB-20 MB of hard disk space (space required depends on system configuration) A LAN adapter card and one or more of the following communications protocols: - TCP/IP (must be WinSock Version 1.1-compatible; required for Netfinity Manager with Web Enhancement) - NetBIOS Note: The Netfinity Manager NetBIOS requirements are three names, two sessions, and nine network control blocks (NCBs). - IPX - SNA Netfinity Manager supports the following SNA protocol stacks: Operating System Supported SNA Stack Windows NT Microsoft SNA Server version 2.11 with Service Pack 1 and WCPIC32.DLL dated 01/22/97 or later. This DLL is available from Microsoft. Note: Systems using Netfinity Manager with Microsoft SNA Server cannot communicate with systems running the Microsoft SNA Server client. Netfinity Manager supports only server-to-server communications between systems running Microsoft SNA Server software. However, Netfinity Manager systems running Microsoft SNA Server can communicate with Netfinity Manager systems using any of the other supported SNA stacks. A 9600 baud or greater modem (optional). The hard disk requirement for Client Services for Netfinity Manager is 6.5 MB-9 MB of hard disk space. All other system requirements are the same as for Netfinity Manager for Windows NT. Notes: 1. Serial Connection Control will not function on systems that do not have a properly installed and configured modem. 2. To most effectively manage Windows NT systems, any user that will be using Netfinity Manager on a Windows NT system (locally or remotely) must have administrator-level access to the system. © Copyright IBM Corp. 1999 37

Netfinity Manager system requirements
The minimum system requirements for Netfinity Manager for Windows NT are:
±
Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 or later
±
Approximately 17 MB–20 MB of hard disk space (space required depends on
system configuration)
±
A LAN adapter card and one or more of the following communications
protocols:
TCP/IP (must be WinSock Version 1.1-compatible; required for Netfinity
Manager with Web Enhancement)
– NetBIOS
Note:
The Netfinity Manager NetBIOS requirements are three names, two
sessions, and nine network control blocks (NCBs).
– IPX
– SNA
Netfinity Manager supports the following SNA protocol stacks:
Operating System
Supported SNA Stack
Windows NT
Microsoft SNA Server version 2.11 with Service Pack
1 and WCPIC32.DLL dated 01/22/97 or later.
This
DLL is available from Microsoft.
Note:
Systems using Netfinity Manager with
Microsoft SNA Server cannot communicate
with systems running the Microsoft SNA
Server client.
Netfinity Manager supports only
server-to-server communications between
systems running Microsoft SNA Server
software.
However, Netfinity Manager
systems running Microsoft SNA Server can
communicate with Netfinity Manager systems
using any of the other supported SNA stacks.
±
A 9600 baud or greater modem (optional).
The hard disk requirement for Client Services for Netfinity Manager is
6.5 MB–9 MB of hard disk space. All other system requirements are the same as
for Netfinity Manager for Windows NT.
Notes:
1. Serial Connection Control will not function on systems that do not have a
properly installed and configured modem.
2. To most effectively manage Windows NT systems, any user that will be using
Netfinity Manager on a Windows NT system (locally or remotely) must have
