Table 2   Network Requirements for URT

Required Item Requirements Notes

DHCP Server

Any standards-compliant dynamic host control protocol (DHCP) server should work. URT has been tested with:

  • Microsoft DHCP Server
  • Cisco Network Registrar

The DHCP server is required so that users can obtain a dynamically generated IP address that belongs to the correct VLAN.

Clients must use DHCP in order to use the URT client module.

Domain Server

Any of these:

  • Windows 2000 with WINS enabled
  • Windows NT Server 4.0 with WINS enabled
  • Novell NetWare 5.0 running the IP stack with the ZENworks Starter Pack

You can use all three types of domain servers. The Microsoft Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server must be enabled on the domain server when the domain server is Windows NT or Windows 2000. WINS is required to resolve domain names to their dynamically generated IP addresses.

 

Table 3 lists hardware and software required for installing and using URT.
