Hardware and software requirements

The Apple IP Gateway may be installed on any Macintosh II or later
Macintosh computer that is equipped with

m Ethernet on the IP side

If the gateway computer does not support NuBus™, it must have built-in
Ethernet, a processor-direct slot (PDS) card, or a SCSI adapter. See the
documentation supplied with the card or adapter for full information on
installation, setup, and operation.

m any AppleTalk link, such as LocalTalk, EtherTalk, or Apple Remote Access,

on the AppleTalk side

See the documentation supplied with the cabling or with the Remote Access
software for full information on installation, setup, and operation.

m at least 4 megabytes of random-access memory (RAM)
m System 7.1 or later

MacTCP version 2.0.4, AppleTalk version 58.1.3, the MacSNMP agents, and
other required networking software are all installed with the gateway. This
software is discussed in “Installing the Gateway Software” in Chapter 2.

If the gateway computer is also supporting either the Apple Internet Router or
an Apple Remote Access server, it must meet all hardware and software
requirements for those products. You may need to increase RAM to provide
adequate memory to run all services simultaneously. See the Apple Internet
Router Administrator’s Guide,
the Apple Remote Access MultiPort Server
Administrator’s Guide,
or the Apple Remote Access Personal Server User’s
Guide
for full information.
