Hardware and Software Requirements

Content Security 6.1 for Microsoft ISA or Forefront TMG Server 2004 / 2006 / 2010 is supposed to be installed on Microsoft ISA or Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) versions 2004/2006 (for ISA) and 2010 (for TMG). The hardware requirements are therefore mostly the same as those of Microsoft ISA/TMG Server.

ComponentRecommended minimum requirement
Processor

2 x Processor Cores, x64 bit compatible, e.g. AMD Opteron or Intel Xeon with Intel ® EM64T or others (for Forefront TMG installations) and Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent (for ISA 2004 / 2006 installations).

Memory

512MB/Core (1GB minimum).

Disk Space

120 MB for program installation files and 250 MB free disk space for storage of temporary files.

Note

Content Security 6.1 supports deployment into virtual environments. Currently supported virtual manages are VMWare, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V and Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2. Other virtual manages were not tested but may work out of the box as Content Security 6.1 does not perform any low level system calls that may interfere with virtualization software.

Software requirements are also determined by the Microsoft ISA or Forefront TMG Servers.
