Recommended Hardware Configuration for CMNM

The CMNM has substantial hardware requirements. The main consumer of resources in the CMNM application is the CEMF application. The requirements below have been designed in order to create an environment optimized for speed of response. These are general “rule of thumb” requirements and can be adjusted to suit specific network deployments. Consultation with an experienced network design specialist is recommended.
