I'm a new employee at this company and my first task is to get a Mars 20r working. The version that's installed is 4.3.4. The box contains only configuration information to get it on the network that's all. Basically it's been sitting around for a while.

I thought my first approach would get the latest software installed 6.0.3.

1. My question is what would be the best approach to accomplish this knowing that only basic setup configuration is on the box.

2. Is there a how to guide or step by step doc on getting this running on 6.0.3

to start monitoring the network.

3. I have spent some time asking management on the business requirements on what they need from MARS and I keep hearing PCI Compliance. Does MARS meet the requirement for PCI reporting?

thanks for your replies.
