The network client is any computer that connects to a DVI System Server through a network.

Hardware

PC with 1.6GHz or higher CPU and 1 GB RAM
or Intel-based Mac with Intel Core Duo 1.83 GHz or higher CPU and 1 GB RAM

Software

Any operating system that has a browser that supports the Microsoft Silverlight 5 plugin. You can find the official core Microsoft Silverlight 5 Requirements here.

Some features of the client is HTML-based and uses various HTML5 commands. These features requires an updated web-browser such as Internet Explorer 10 or later or equivalent Google Chrome or Safari.

Google Chrome has recently started to block usage of external plugins such as Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight, and will thus not be useable as client browser for the Silverlight parts of the system.

Firefox has announced that plugins like Silverlight will not be supported by beginning of 2017
