NOTE: Remote access to the VNE Server console window is unavailable under Windows 2000 Server when run under Windows Terminal Services. OPNET recommends running VNE Server under Windows Server 2003 if it is to be deployed on Windows Terminal Services. Otherwise, users on Windows 2000 Server will need physical access to the server's console for access to the VNE Server user interface.

NOTE: VNE Server will not operate on machines with the Intel Itanium processor.

1 VNE server performance will improve with more available memory as network size increases.
2 A dual-processor configuration is recommended if VNE Server and the back-end Oracle database are to reside on the same platform.
3 Front-Side Bus (FSB) speed affects the speed of data transfer to and from the VNE Server database; faster bus speeds will improve VNE Server performance.
