This section describes the hardware and software requirements for Netra j 3.0.
The Netra j 3.0 software can run on any Sun(TM) 4u UltraSPARC(TM) or 4m hyperSPARC(TM) platform supported by the Solaris(TM) 2.5.1 or 2.6 operating environment.

*When the default features of the Netra j 3.0 software are installed on the Netra j 3.0 server. |
If additional client-server software is installed, such as that on the Netra(TM) Ready(TM) CD, more disk space is needed. Refer to the that software's documentation for disk space requirements.
If you download the Netra j 3.0 software from the Web, you will need an additional 280 megabytes of temporary disk space in a download directory.
To verify your free disk space, type this command as the superuser:
# df -lk
If the system to be configured as a Netra j 3.0 server is not already part of a functional network, then you will need a CD-ROM drive, monitor, keyboard, and mouse for installation and initial configuration. If the system is already part of a network, these tasks can be performed from a client.
Though not necessary, an internal diskette drive and an external tape drive are helpful accessories. An internal diskette drive enables you to back up the Netra j 3.0 server configuration onto removable media, for secure storage. An external tape drive enables you to back up portions of the Netra j 3.0 server file system.
The system to be configured as a Netra j 3.0 server must contain the following software:
Solaris operating environment version 2.5.1 or 2.6
An HTML 3.2 compatible web browser.
The HotJava(TM) Browser 1.1.2 web browser is HTML 3.2 compliant and is provided as part of the Netra j 3.0 software package. Use this browser for best results.
