Dell PowerEdge T620 or R620 domain functionality or Terminal Services. PrimeSUITE client software the use of virtualization to maximize the use of current hardware technologies. : Dell PowerEdge T620 or R620 Additional Server Information Other Software MDS Medical recommends that PrimeSuite is run exclusively on a server. Please contact MDS Medical s Technical Service department if you plan to run other software on the PrimeSuite Server. *Volume/Open Licensing is required to downgrade server OS or SQL software. 5 Domain Controllers PrimeSuite cannot be run from a Domain Controller. Terminal Servers PrimeSuite cannot be run on the server it is installed on. If you wish to use a Terminal Server for remote users, you will need a separate Terminal Server either physical or virtual. Server 2008R2 is currently the only approved Terminal Server OS available. Virtualization MDS Medical strongly suggests the use of virtualization. MDS uses Citrix XenServer 6.2 as its current preferred virtualization technology. Other suitable technologies are available based on client preference and local support.

There can be two configurations for this VPN. You can either use a Cisco ASA series router as your primary gateway, or you can use a Cisco ASA series router behind your current gateway as a VPN client to the PrimeSUITE Server. Both configurations require a Static IP Address. Gateway Configuration Recommendation With a gateway configuration the Cisco ASA would be configured as the main gateway on the network. In order to setup the VPN to the Greenway network the internal network would have to be configured with a network Page 6 of 8 Updated 6/20/2014

The server would have to be dual homed in this configuration and be assigned an internal IP address and a VPN IP address. Cisco ASA 5505 Unlimited User Bundle (up to 50 users) MDS Medical recommends using Cisco Wireless Access Points to ensure wireless stability.

Panasonic KV S10x5C series or better Fujitsu fi 61xx or 7x60 series The PrimeSuite Server needs to directly communicate with at least one network based printer for printing HCFA claims and patient statements. HP LaserJet P2055n or P2055dn Most LaserJet printers or multifunction PSC machines Electronic based fax services require either PDF (manual import) or multipage TIFF which enables auto import functionality. Recommended servers include: Multitech FaxFinder ff240 (2 port) Multitech FaxFinder ff440 (4 port) Multitech FaxFinder ff840 (8 port) With a webcam, you can take patient photos for the patient s chart.
