Ethernet Connection Requirements

The server’s Ethernet interfaces directly support full or half duplex 100BaseTx or 10BaseT twisted-pair Ethernet. To connect the server’s Ethernet interfaces to twisted-pair Ethernet cabling, you will need an unshielded twisted-pair station cable that is connected to a 10BaseT-compatible twisted-pair hub (for a transmit speed of 10 Mbps) or a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet hub (at either transmit speed) for each interface you plan to connect.

ϖNote: Ethernet cables and cable connectors are not supplied with the IntraPort 2/2+ product. Please contact your reseller or your Com- patible Systems representative for information on obtaining the correct Ethernet cabling supplies.

VPN Client Software Requirements

In order to run the VPN Client software, your remote users will require one of the following:

A Windows PC with a 486 or later processor and either the Windows95/98 or Windows NT operating system

A Macintosh or compatible computer with a PowerPC CPU, Mac OS 7.6 or later and Open Transport 1.1.1 or later.

Linux kernel 2.0.36 (Intel) and Perl 5.004_04 or higher.

• A Sparc™ machine running a 32 bit Solaris OS.

In addition, remote users must have a PPP-based dial-up connection to an Internet Service Provider or be connected to an Ethernet which is linked to the Internet.
