Additional SolarWinds UDT Requirements
Enterprise-level SolarWinds UDT deployments with the potential for more than 50,000 ports may need
additional computing resources above the standards required for SolarWinds common components:
Ports Additional Requirements
Up to 50,000 No additional requirements
More than 50,000 8+ GB RAM
n
If you are running Windows Server 2008, you must upgrade to Windows Server 2008 R2,
because SolarWinds UDT does not support Windows Server 2008 due to known WMI issues.
nIf you are running Windows Server 2003 your server must either be in the same domain as the
domain controller or have WMI connectivity setup between the two machines. Consult this
Knowledge Base article for information on retrieving user data across domains.
Scalability
By adding individual polling engines, you can transparently scale your SolarWinds UDT installation to any
environment.

FIPS Support
FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) defines security and interoperability standards for
computers used by the U.S. Federal Government.
To enable FIPS in the Local Security Policy on Windows:
1.
Click Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools, and then double-click Local
Security Policy.
2.
Expand the Local Policies category in the left pane, and then click Security Options.
3.
Right-click System cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing.
4.
In the context menu that is displayed, click Properties.
5.
In the Local Security Setting tab, click Enabled and then click OK.
FIPS can also be enabled as part of Group Policy.
SolarWinds UDT installations on Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 (supported for evaluation
purposes only) require a Microsoft hotfix to realize the FIPS-compatibility features of this release. For more
information about this required Microsoft hotfix, see the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981119.
As noted in the KB article, you need to enable FIPS first before applying the Microsoft hotfix.
