Installation¶
System requirements¶
Perfect Streamer runs on OS Linux. The main requirement is GLIBC version >= 2.17.
The system must be compatible with the Gemalto Sentinel protection system.
Network interfaces for streamer must be configured statically.
Installation packages and repositories are available for the Red Hat and Debian families. RHEL version 7 and higher (Centos etc) is supported. Debian based systems (Ubuntu etc) must have systemd service.
Hardware requirements: one 2.4 GHz core and 1 GB of RAM for every 200 Mb of traffic. The estimate is approximate and depends on the used protocols and service configuration.
