Connecting to the LAN 
As a system manager, you need access to a Windows-based PC from which 
to configure MeetingPlace using MeetingTime. The system you use does not 
need to be dedicated to system management
you can use any PC on the 
LAN. 
The rest of this section presents the information you need to: 
 
Make sure your LAN is compatible. 
 
Decide whether you need additional desktop and network software for 
end users, contacts, and attendants 
 
Decide whether you need additional hardware and software to manage the 
system. 
Network Communication Requirements 
All MeetingPlace M3 servers must reside in a network segment dedicated for 
MeetingPlace (i.e., network segment isolated from the rest of the corporate 
network by a dedicated switch or VLAN segment where applicable). To 
connect to other applications, such as MeetingTime and MeetingPlace Web, 
MeetingPlace requires certain TCP/UDP ports to remain open on your 
network. The following figure illustrates the ports a MeetingPlace M3 
system uses for communication. Unless otherwise specified, all ports listed 
are TCP.
