Server Requirements / Recommendations for AVM-2000
| Your network and its server/software must support long filenames |
| Strongly recommend using a dedicated server (users using peer-to-peer networking
generally experience more problems with file corruption and other issues than those with a dedicated
server) |
| Avoid using the server as a workstation, if possible |
| Minimize use of other applications on server |
| Plenty of free hard disk space on server (500 MB or more) |
| Plenty of RAM on server (1 GB or more) |
| Fast microprocessor for server (Pentium 4, 2 GHz or better) |
| REBOOT your SERVER EVERY DAY if using peer-to-peer
networking |
Networking Requirements/Recommendations for AVM-2000
| Your network and its server/software must support long filenames |
| Strongly recommend using a dedicated server (users using peer-to-peer networking
generally experience more problems with file corruption than those with a dedicated
server) |
| High-quality network cards for all workstations |
| Use UTP CAT 5 wiring |
| 10 MB networking NOT recommended |
| 100 MB with UTP CAT 5 with a 100 MB Hub, recommended |
| 1000 MB (1 GigaBit) networking with a 1000 MB (1 GigaBit)
Hub for BEST performance |
| Your workstations and server should NOT be running Windows XP Home. The
Home version of Windows XP has networking limitations. Users should upgrade to
Windows XP Pro. |
