  • With a 5000 device license,  Campus Manager will only manage 5500 devices.  After that -  no more.
  • The Windows Remote Management service can conflict with RME. Always check that it’s not running. (The WinRM service starts automatically on Windows Server 2008)
  • LMS 3.2 can run on Windows 2008 Server but,  You should disable the FIPS compliance for the CiscoWorks to work properly, because the SSL authentication might fail:

    • . To enable/disable FIPS on Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 servers:

    1. Open  Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative tools > Local Security Policy.
    2. Click Local Polices > Security Options.
    3. Select System cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing.
    4. Right-click the selected policy and click Properties.
    5. Select Enabled or Disabled to enable or disable FIPS compliant algorithms.
    6. Click Apply.
    7. Reboot the server for the changes to take effect.

    Cheers
