Requirements for
3WXM Monitoring
Service
Table 4 shows the minimum and recommended requirements to run the 
3WXM monitoring service.
Table 5 contains general recommended guidelines for hardware 
requirements and memory allocation based on the number of radios and 
WX switches your server will support. A larger number of WX switches 
implies more connections and data processing, and consequently, more 
CPU is required. A larger number of radios implies more data (including 
client sessions) which requires more RAM and storage.
