Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Requirements
•
For the DPE-590, refer to the
Cisco Content Engine 500 Series Hardware Installation Guide
. This
can be found at:

ce500hig.html
•

•
A key distribution center (KDC). The KDC and the DPE registration services handle the
authentication of all voice technology media terminal adapters (MTAs). When a lab 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.
Note
The KDC is required only when configuring a system to support voice technology
operations.
•
One or more Cisco Network Registrar servers. Network Registrar provides Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS) functionality. Implementing
dynamic DNS (DDNS) within Network Registrar, increases the number of servers you need to
deploy.
Table 1-1
describes the hardware requirements for each server.
