==Standalone versus Networked Configuration==
To determine the initial configuration of the IMSMANG IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> system, it is important to understand the two ways in which IMSMANG IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> can be set up and the basic architecture of the system. IMSMANG IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> is a client-server software application designed to run in stand-alone or networked mode. In a stand-alone system, both the IMSMANG IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> client and server are installed on the same computer. The stand-alone configuration is the simpler type of installation: it requires no additional network equipment or infrastructure and is easy to maintain.
