2.4.1. DEPCON Workstation Requirements<br />

<strong>Installation</strong> Checklists <strong>and</strong> Tips<br />

Sites must provide a workstation on which to run DEPCON. Requirements are listed<br />

below.<br />

Note: If your <strong>ClearPath</strong> <strong>IX</strong> server includes a Windows NT node, you may wish to use<br />

that node to provide this capability.<br />

• Windows 2000, Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 3.51 or higher<br />

• Minimum processor required for the Windows operating system<br />

• 3-1/2-inch diskette drive or access to a network for installation<br />

• Minimum memory required for the Windows operating system<br />

• A hard disk with a minimum of 6 MB available for the DEPCON software (25MB for a<br />

full installation) <strong>and</strong> enough space for the files you want to print<br />

• A monitor with a minimum display resolution of 800 x 600 pixels<br />

Refer to the DEPCON Application <strong>Configuration</strong> <strong>and</strong> Operations <strong>Guide</strong> for detailed<br />

information.<br />

Note: You can connect block multiplexer channel (BMC) printers to the DEPCON<br />

workstation only on Windows NT <strong>and</strong> Windows 2000, not Windows 95 or<br />

Windows 98.<br />

2.4.2. Planning for <strong>ClearPath</strong> <strong>IX</strong> Server <strong>Installation</strong> as a Private<br />

Network<br />

Note: For additional guidance on the use of Internet addresses, read the Internet<br />

Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comments (RFC) 1918, which can<br />

be found on the Web.<br />

A site without an existing TCP/IP network can initially set up a private network by<br />

selecting IP numbers reserved by the IANA for private Internets (from 192.168.1.xxx to<br />

192.168.255.xxx—excluding the range used by Unisys for the internal FDDI LAN).<br />

Using addresses reserved for private networks is an easy way to get started. But to later<br />

connect to the external Internet the site must get official IP addresses <strong>and</strong> reconfigure all<br />

server components with the official addresses.<br />
