Software Requirements

Your network environment must meet the following minimum software requirements:

Windows NT 4.0 TCP/IP server

WinSock 1.1 (or later)

SNMP service (optional) for managing LiveGateway from the LiveGateway SNMP Manager of the
LiveManager gatekeeper

SNMP Service

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol that is available on Windows NT. LiveGateway’s
use of SNMP lets you manage the LiveGateway (installed throughout your network) remotely through the
LiveManager Console. To manage LiveGateway from the LiveManager Console, you need to enable SNMP
service when you install LiveGateway. Refer to

Installing the LiveGateway Software

for the instructions for

enabling SNMP service for LiveManager when you install LiveGateway.

Refer to Chapter 2, Installing LiveManager of the PictureTel LiveManager Install Guide for instructions on
how to install the LiveManager Console component of LiveManager on a Windows NT 4.0 (or later) server or a
Windows NT or Windows 95 client.

If you want to manage LiveGateway through the LiveManager Console, but you do not have SNMP service,
contact your network administrator.

ISDN BRI Line

LiveGateway comes ready to connect to an ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) with either National or Custom
ISDN BRI service. You need the following ISDN service, equipment, and information to install LiveGateway:
