Note: VMware is NOT supported.
Server hardware requirements depend entirely on the size of the network being
monitored and the type and volume of data being collected, stored and processed.
Monitoring a small number of SNMP objects (e.g. a 10,000 interface network) and a
couple of low volume NetFlow collectors will only require a current model
commodity PC.
For best performance we recommend the following:
Up to 10,000 network interfaces and minimal NetFlow collection requirements:
- 64 bit Dual Core CPU, with 2MB of L2 cache for each core
- 4GB RAM
- 240GB Hard Drive
Up to 100,000 network interfaces and average NetFlow collection requirements:
- 64 bit Quad Core CPU, with 2MB of L2 cache for each core
- 4GB RAM
- 500GB Hard Drive
For more than 100,000 network interfaces or large NetFlow deployments, please contact
Statseeker Support for assistance.
