Operating System Requirements

Red Hat Linux (64-bit)

Windows (64-bit)

Platform Requirements. Reference hardware can be commodity-grade, and must have the following 
minimum specifications to be eligible for Cisco support:

Intel x86 64-bit chip architecture with two CPUs, six cores per CPU, 2.5-3 Ghz per core (minimum)

16 GB RAM

Four 300-GB SAS hard disks at 10,000 rpm each, in RAID1+0 (800 IOPS or better)

Standard 1-Gb Ethernet NIC, optional second NIC for a management network

Web Security Advanced Reporting Enterprise is often constrained by disk I/O first, so always consider 
disk infrastructure first when selecting the storage hardware.

The file system will be assumed to be running on local disk volumes formatted as NTFS or EXT2/3. A 
separate OS volume should be created per industry best practices. The Enterprise installation should 
reside on its own logical volume whenever possible.

The base configuration is a single-tier architecture with one server offering all three parts of the core 
functionality of a typical Web Security Advanced Reporting Enterprise deployment:

a search instance

an indexer

a monitor for data sources
