Nx Meta - Supported Operating Systems

Nx Meta VMP is cross-platform and is supported on all major operating systems. The advantage of cross-platform functionality is that, as an example, a Windows instance of Nx Meta will work and communicate with an Ubuntu instance. 

This article applies to Nx Meta 4.1 only and does not apply to prior versions since they are no longer officially supported by Network Optix. For more information please visit Nx Meta Platform Support.
