Sizing the NAV server

Hi NAV gurus,

I have been testing NAV on and off for a while with a fraction of our devices on a small VM. I like it more and more as I am getting used to it. I would like to get recommendation of a NAV setup that can handle our environment.

Our network is layered like the following:

Border Router: 2

Core and Area Router: ~30

Building Router: ~100

Edge Switch: ~1500

Shall we use one big server or multiple servers, physical or virtual for various NAV management components? What CPU, MEMORY, DISK IO, and DISK size shall we plan for?

Thank you very much for your help.
