     Other Hardware Required

     A VT24x, VT330, or VT340 Terminal is required for systems with
     no DECwindows user interface. Block Space Requirements (Block
     Cluster Size = 1):

     Disk space required for      4,000 blocks
     installation:
                                  (2048K bytes)

     Disk space required for      5,500 blocks
     use (permanent):
                                  (2816K bytes)

     These counts refer to the disk space required on the system
     disk. The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary depending
     on the user's system environment, configuration, and software
     options.

     *ETHERnim installs a database with a default size of 1500
     blocks.

     For extended NMCC/VAX ETHERnim sessions and support of large
     network configurations, additional disk storage should be com-
     puted from the following:

     o  Network Database (in blocks) = 48 + (3 x # of Nodes) + 100

     o  Segment Database (in blocks) = 15 + (1 x # of Segments) + 50

     o  Session History (in blocks) = 500 blocks x # hours of run-
        time
