Notes
700 MHz is the recommended
processor speed. You can use
computers with a lower processor
speed; however, you might experience
longer response times and slower
performance.
Cisco recommends using 512 MG
RAM for networks with 25 nodes or
more to avoid longer response times
and slower performance.

JRE 1.4.2 is installed by the CTC
Installation Wizard included on the
Cisco ONS 15454 software CD.
JRE 1.4.2 and JRE 5.0 provide
enhancements to CTC performance,
especially for large networks with
numerous circuits.
Cisco recommends that you use
JRE 1.4.2 or JRE 5.0 for networks with
Software R7.0 nodes. If CTC must be
launched directly from nodes running
software R5.0 or R6.0, Cisco
recommends JRE 1.4.2.If CTC must be
launched directly from nodes running
software earlier than R5.0, Cisco
recommends JRE 1.3.1_02.
