System Requirements

System requirements vary depending how you use the application and the operational environment. Because NETGEAR does not know your specific network and devices, these recommendations are based on typical rather than definitive configurations.

Tip: Base the minimum configuration of any system on its expected peak load. Your installation should spend 95 percent of its time idle and

5 percent of its time trying to keep pace with the resource demands.
