Key Distribution Center (KDC). For maximum performance and segmentation of the network, you
may install one KDC instance per provisioning group. The KDC, along with the DPE registration
service, handles the authentication of all PacketCable voice technology MTAs. When a laboratory
installation is performed, the KDC is installed on the lab computer. For performance reasons
however, in a component installation, the KDC should be installed on a separate server. The KDC
component requires a license.

Note
The KDC and DPE have service keys that are required to allow them to communicate.
Although the component installation program supports installing the components on the same computer,
in practice, you are likely to run the program on several different computers as described in these
