# Epiphany Collector Prerequisites

## About This Guide

The Epiphany Intelligence Platform can leverage customer data sources based in the cloud and/or on premise. While the cloud-based data collector generally does not require additional resources, some customers require a local device to collect, encrypt, and transmit data to the platform. There are network and virtual hardware considerations, which are outlined in this document.

## Version Compatibility <a href="#version-compatibility" id="version-compatibility"></a>

* Epiphany Local Site Collector Version 1.x.

## Hardware Requirements <a href="#hardware-requirements" id="hardware-requirements"></a>

* **Platform**: VMWare or Hyper-V
* **RAM**: 16GB (expandable to 32GB)
* **Cores**: 2 (expandable to 4)
* **Storage**: 55GB (minimum)

## Outbound Firewall Rules/Exceptions <a href="#outbound-firewall-rules-exceptions" id="outbound-firewall-rules-exceptions"></a>

You must permit the following addresses within your firewall rules for the collector to communicate to the Epiphany Intelligence Platform:

* fm1.epiphanysys.com:4505,4506
