Certification Matrix: SQLBase 7.6.1

Sept. 3, 2001

The following table illustrates the test environments that have been used to certify this release of SQLBase using various operating systems and network protocols. This Product Certification table reflects combinations of clients, servers, and network protocols that passed our most rigorous tests. However, there are other combinations of clients, servers, and network protocols that are supported.

Underneath each server and client entry in parenthesis will be the Centura COMDLL associated. Please refer to the section at the end of this document that describe the operating environment in more detail.

The network used was 802.3/Ethernet based.

The names of the communications files are TLISPX.NLM (IPX/SPX protocol) and TLIDLL.NLM (TCP-IP protocol).
