Before beginning the installation process, it is necessary to determine the key system requirements.

Will the system:

  • Require multiple-server configuration?

  • Utilize a shared SQL environment?

  • Utilize a shared network storage solution?

  • Connect to Active Directory or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)?

If the system is going to be a single, standalone installation of IP Server, opting to use the basic installation process is recommended.

If Microsoft SQL Server is already present in your server or environment, then only IP Server is required to be installed. Otherwise, the downloadable package includes Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express as the database of choice.

Either way, IP Server Enterprise requires a fully functioning SQL database as part of its platform.

See IP Server Installation for more information.
