+  * If you do not yet have a working network configuration on the server you plan to do the installation on, please use this section as reference, else just proceed to the next section.
   * Since there is such a huge difference between the way of doing things in Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 we felt that adding this section will help those who are getting used to this newer way of doing things.
   * For this we assume you have a bare VM (like the ones from https://www.osboxes.org/ubuntu-server/ )

-  * As from December 2016 we started a migration process of migrating from CakePHP v2 to CakePHP v3.
-  * The ORM component of CakePHP v3 is completely new and different which makes the migration fairly involved.
-  * Since the architecture of RADIUSdesk is following modern design principles it allows us to run both CakePHP v2 and CakePHP v3 simultaneously.
-  * We can then do the migration gradually over time.
