DCA Server Software Requirements 
Prior to installing the DCA 2.01, the following prerequisite software must be installed 
and properly configured.

Microsoft Internet 
Information Server 
(IIS) 
5.0 
Regarding your IIS installation: 
• 
Cisco recommends that you use IIS's default installation options. 
• 
If your DCA uses SSL (that is, if you use the DCA to share secure 
content), an appropriate server certificate must be installed and SSL 
configured, as desired. 
• 
If you choose, you can install the IIS Lockdown Tool on your 
Windows 2000/IIS server, but ONLY AFTER installing the DCA. If the 
Lockdown Tool is already installed on your server, you must uninstall 
it before installing the DCA. Failure to do this will prevent the DCA 
from installing properly. Read About the IIS Lockdown Tool for more 
information.
