+## Host Machine Requirements
+
+Each machine that runs a native client must meet the following requirements:
+
+- A system clock set to the correct time and a time synchronization
+service such as Network Time Protocol (NTP).
+Correct time stamps permit the following activities:
+ - Logs that are useful for troubleshooting. Synchronized time stamps ensure that log messages from different hosts can be merged to reproduce an accurate chronological history of a distributed run.
+ - Aggregate product-level and application-level time statistics.
+ - Accurate monitoring of the system with scripts and other tools that read the system statistics and log files.
+- The host name and host files are properly configured for the machine.
+- Many default Linux installations use SYN cookies to protect the
+system against malicious attacks that flood TCP SYN packets.
+The use of SYN cookies dramatically reduces network bandwidth,
+and can be triggered by a running GemFire distributed system.
+
+ To disable SYN cookies permanently:
+ 1. Edit the `/etc/sysctl.conf` file to include the following line:
+
+ ``` pre
+ net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 0
+ ```
+ Setting this value to zero disables SYN cookies.
+ 2. Reload `sysctl.conf`:
+
+ ``` pre
+ sysctl -p
+ ```

+
+**Runtime Library Requirements**
+
+The GemFire native client also requires the Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package. This package is installed for you when you use the native client .msi installer. If you do not use the .msi installer, you will need to install this package for your platform architecture manually ([x86-64](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784)) on all machines that will run the GemFire native client. This package contains runtime libraries needed by the native client.
+
+**.NET Framework Version Support**
+
+The Pivotal GemFire native client is supported with Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2.
+
+A Microsoft .NET Framework must be installed to support the C++/CLI (Common Language Infrastructure) library for the native client.
+
+The Pivotal GemFire native client 9.0 supports .NET 4.5.2 and Visual Studio 2013 (for compiling C++ applications on Windows). For more information on the features of .NET and Visual Studio Community Edition 2013 Update 5, see [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853(v=vs.120).aspx](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853(v=vs.120).aspx) .
+
+## <a id="concept_7AE0C1CB11244095A50CCB52A09A09A1__section_C5848F353C504844BAFFD3EB2BE7DA23" class="no-quick-link"></a>Linux
+
+The following table lists the RPM package dependencies for the Linux distribution. The i386 or i686 after the package name indicates that you must install the package for that particular architecture regardless of the native operating system architecture. All of the packages listed are available with the default media for the distribution.
+
+<a id="concept_7AE0C1CB11244095A50CCB52A09A09A1__table_C809C11B1624423EAD4ABA21636C2F10"></a>
+
+| Linux Version | glibc | libgcc |
+|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------|---------------|
+| Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7 (x86-64) | glibc (i686) | libgcc (i386) |
+
+
+For versions of Linux not listed in the table, you can verify that you meet the native client dependencies at the library level by using the `ldd` tool and entering this command:
+
+``` pre
+prompt> ldd $GFCPP/lib/libgfcppcache.so
+```
+
+This step assumes you have already installed the native client and have set the GFCPP environment variable to *productDir*, where *productDir* represents the location of the NativeClient\_*xxxx*\_b*nnnnn* directory (*xxxx* is the four-digit product version and b*nnnnn* is the product build number).
+
+The following libraries are external dependencies of the native library, `libgfcppcache.so`. Verify that the ldd tool output includes all of these:
+
+- libdl.so.2
+- libm.so.6
+- libpthread.so.0
+- libc.so.6
+- libz.so.1
+

+
+Without tuning, the Pivotal GemFire native client can suffer a performance drop in virtual environments, including the VMware vSphere virtual platform. Without correct tuning, you can expect to see significant performance degradation when running the GemFire native client on vSphere versus running GemFire on dedicated hardware.
+
+We recommend that you tune your GemFire native client on vSphere deployments using the same guidelines published for Pivotal GemFire.
+
+See [Improving GemFire Performance on vSphere](geodeman/managing/monitor_tune/gemfire_performance_on_vsphere.html) for a list of guidelines and recommendations.
+
+## <a id="concept_7AE0C1CB11244095A50CCB52A09A09A1__ssl_requirements" class="no-quick-link"></a>Software Requirements for Using SSL
+
+If you plan on using SSL in your GemFire native client and server deployment, you will need to download and install OpenSSL.
+
+The GemFire native client requires OpenSSL 1.0.1t or later. For Windows platforms, you can use either the regular or the OpenSSL "Light" version.
+
+In addition, make sure that your system environment variables have been configured to include OpenSSL.
+
+See [SSL Client/Server Communication](../../security/overviewsslclientserver.html#security) for instructions.

-
-The GemFire native client also requires the Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package. This package is installed for you when you use the native client .msi installer. If you do not use the .msi installer, you will need to install this package for your platform architecture manually ([x86-64](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784)) on all machines that will run the GemFire native client. This package contains runtime libraries needed by the native client.

-**.NET Framework Version Support**
-
-The Pivotal GemFire native client is supported with Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2.
-
-A Microsoft .NET Framework must be installed to support the C++/CLI (Common Language Infrastructure) library for the native client.
-
-The Pivotal GemFire native client 9.0 supports .NET 4.5.2 and Visual Studio 2013 (for compiling C++ applications on Windows). For more information on the features of .NET and Visual Studio Community Edition 2013 Update 5, see [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853(v=vs.120).aspx](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853(v=vs.120).aspx) .

-
-The following table lists the RPM package dependencies for the Linux distribution. The i386 or i686 after the package name indicates that you must install the package for that particular architecture regardless of the native operating system architecture. All of the packages listed are available with the default media for the distribution.

-| Linux Version | glibc | libgcc |
-|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------|---------------|
-| Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7 (x86-64) | glibc (i686) | libgcc (i386) |
-
-
-For versions of Linux not listed in the table, you can verify that you meet the native client dependencies at the library level by using the `ldd` tool and entering this command:
-
-``` pre
-prompt> ldd $GFCPP/lib/libgfcppcache.so
-```
-
-This step assumes you have already installed the native client and have set the GFCPP environment variable to *productDir*, where *productDir* represents the location of the NativeClient\_*xxxx*\_b*nnnnn* directory (*xxxx* is the four-digit product version and b*nnnnn* is the product build number).
-
-The following libraries are external dependencies of the native library, `libgfcppcache.so`. Verify that the ldd tool output includes all of these:
-
-- libdl.so.2
-- libm.so.6
-- libpthread.so.0
-- libc.so.6
-- libz.so.1

-
-Without tuning, the Pivotal GemFire native client can suffer a performance drop in virtual environments, including the VMware vSphere virtual platform. Without correct tuning, you can expect to see significant performance degradation when running the GemFire native client on vSphere versus running GemFire on dedicated hardware.
-
-We recommend that you tune your GemFire native client on vSphere deployments using the same guidelines published for Pivotal GemFire.
-
-See [Improving GemFire Performance on vSphere](geodeman/managing/monitor_tune/gemfire_performance_on_vsphere.html) for a list of guidelines and recommendations.

-
-If you plan on using SSL in your GemFire native client and server deployment, you will need to download and install OpenSSL.
-
-The GemFire native client requires OpenSSL 1.0.1t or later. For Windows platforms, you can use either the regular or the OpenSSL "Light" version.
-
-In addition, make sure that your system environment variables have been configured to include OpenSSL.
-
-See [SSL Client/Server Communication](../../security/overviewsslclientserver.html#security) for instructions.
