This guide gives all the instructions required to install NOVAXE® correctly.
The following are the minimum requirements for installing NOVAXE®:
Windows 2000/2003/XP (latest service pack recommended)
Internet Explorer 6.0 or later (may work with other browsers too)
Intel or compatible Processor
TCP/IP network connectivity
200 Mb free space on disk, excluding log files storage.
1 Gb of RAM (2 Gb recommended). Memory consumption in general depends on how much data is present in the log files NOVAXE® analyzes, the detail level of the reports the user creates and the timerange set.
An external syslog server program to write log files to local disk.
NOVAXE® is designed to read, analyze and create reports of log files produced by external firewall devices. Although these files are not part of NOVAXE® itself, they have to be stored somewhere on the local filesystem. These are typically large ASCII files which may take a big amount of storage on your hard-drive. Please, ensure there's enough diskspace also for them.
