This chapter describes the factors to consider and tasks to perform before you install Essentials and CWSI Campus. Although the two products have separate CDs and installation programs, they are part of the CiscoWorks2000 Family of Products and are related in several important ways.
This chapter contains the following sections:
The CiscoWorks2000 Family of Products consists of two products: Resource Manager Essentials (Essentials) and CWSI Campus. It ships in two configurations:
If you order Essentials only, you do not receive the CWSI Campus product or documentation (other than the CWSI Campus information in this document). If you order Essentials and CWSI Campus together, you receive both products and their documentation.
 | Caution Essentials must be installed on the system before CWSI Campus can be installed. The install procedure for CWSI Campus will not work unless Essentials is installed first. |
Table 1-1 summarizes the hardware requirements for CW2000. The requirements listed for Essentials are for the server system only. For Essentials client system requirements, refer to the "Installing Essentials" chapter, "Client Requirements" section.
