System Overview and Requirements

The host PC runs the application and the database. The database contains the hardware configuration, personnel, badge holder, privilege information, and historical information (events).

The server communicates with XR Series or TMSentry Control Panels and downloads information about configuration, badge holders, and user privileges. This allows panels to completely control all points in the system and make intrusion and access control decisions even if communication with the server is down. The server stores these transactions in the Entré database that are displayed in real-time and are available for reporting. The server also processes panel events.

Minimum Software Requirements

Hardware requirements depend on the type and size of your Entré configuration. For complete server architecture recommendations, refer to Entré Installation, Setup, and Server Maintenance Guide (LT-2494).

• Server OS: Windows Server 2016

• Client OS: Windows 10

• Microsoft SQL 2019 and higher

• Apache Tomcat 10

For information about Entré compatibility with specific versions of panel firmware, refer to Compatibility.

Note: Entré Access and Security Management does not have Java built-in and requires users to download Java 17 or OpenJDK 17 alternative.
