Ken,

Probably the biggest difference, for a large client base, is that Networker
7.x seems to rely on DNS much more for security. That is, it seems to
perform many more IP/DNS checks of a client.  We found it actually brought
out some errors in DNS for some clients that version 6.1.3 did not care about.

One needs to make sure all interfaces on a client are resolvable for
Networker 7.x. and in the alias field..remediating this before upgrading
really reduces client failures right after the upgrade.
