Network server
General information about the server:
The DATAflor BUSINESS Software can be installed as a peer2peer system or as a server + workstation. With the Peer2Peer installation there is no additional server, but a workstation acts as server and workstation. There may be performance degradation with this solution. For reasons of speed and data security, we recommend a correct server/client network installation from the 3rd workstation. For the networkaddresses the address space must be configured according to IP V4. It is recommended to provide the server with a fixed IP address.
Operating systems:
- Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation or Standard
- Windows Small BUSINESS Server 2011 Essentials or Standard (Windows Home Server 2011 is not supported)
- Windows Server 2012 Standard, Foundation and Essentials
