Computing platform requirements and options

3.2.1

Supported Platforms

On the Alcatel-Lucent Appliance, Redhat Linux is supported.
3.2.2

High Availability Architecture

VitalQIP provides many-to-one DHCP server functionality. This means that a single secondary DHCP
server can be the backup for multiple primary DHCP servers. The transition between primary and
secondary servers is totally transparent to the clients requesting leases. The Alcatel-Lucent Appliance
solution also provides DNS primary and back-up configurations for enhanced DNS High Availability
functions. Although VitalQIP is not certified on any high availability hardware architecture,
deployments of VitalQIP are running on UNIX high availability (cluster) platforms with high availability
databases (e.g., Oracle Transaction Application Failover).
VitalQIP has been deployed on hardware vendor supported high availability configurations.
