SWIFTNet7 adapter requirements
The SWIFTNet7 adapter communicates to the SWIFTNet Network through the SWIFTNet MEFG Servers for SWIFTNet version 7. It responds to and accepts InterAct and FileAct messages that are sent by remote SWIFTNet correspondents.
IBM AIX
If you are using the SWIFTNet7 Adapter on the IBM AIX platform, you must patch your IBM XL C/C++ runtime library to July 2009 Runtime for IBM XL C++ for AIX. Additionally, you must upgrade your AIX operating system to Version 6.1 (or higher).
If you are using SSL, you must upgrade to the latest security fix of the OpenSSL library that corresponds to the MEFG Installation version, for example OpenSSL 1.0.1p or OpenSSL 1.0.2d. It is recommended that you continue to monitor and apply the latest security fixes to the OpenSSL library to apply fixes to the OpenSSL security defects.

For IBM AIX, the download is available from IBM (https://www.ibm.com/support/home/).
Windows
If you are using the SWIFTNet7 Adapter on the Windows platform, you must upgrade your Windows operating system to at least Windows Server 2008 R2 (with all security patches).
If you are using SSL, you must upgrade to the latest security fix of the OpenSSL library that corresponds to the MEFG Installation version, for example OpenSSL 1.0.1p or OpenSSL 1.0.2d. It is recommended that you continue to monitor and apply the latest security fixes to the OpenSSL library to apply fixes to the OpenSSL security defects.

For Windows, the download is available from Microsoft® (Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008).
Red Hat Enterprise Linux
To use the SWIFTNet7 Adapter on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux platform, you must be using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Release 6.1 or higher x64, 64-bit Kernel, including any patches within 6.x. Supported kernel version: 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5 or higher within version 2.x.
Install the SWIFT Remote API for Linux before installing MEFG. The SWIFT Remote API download is available from SWIFT (http://www.swift.com), and shcould be a version compatable with MEFG and SWIFTNet Link.
If you are using SSL, you must also upgrade to the latest security fix of the OpenSSL library that corresponds to the MEFG Installation version. For example OpenSSL 1.0.1p or OpenSSL 1.0.2d. We recommend that you continue to monitor and continue to apply the latest security fixes to the OpenSSL library to apply fixes to OpenSSL security defects.
