Software

OSOther

Windows Server 2012 or above

MongoDB is required for data storage.

Along with Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3 as a prerequisite.

If the above software is not installed, then it can be downloaded from –

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685

The above URL contains two files –

  1. vc_redist.x64.exe

  2. vc_redist.x86.exe

Both files should be downloaded and installed in the server system

Screenshot Directory

A shared network directory is necessary for storing captured screenshots, which must be accessible by the Avo Assure client component.

The device or system where screenshots are shared must have adequate disk space.

For Windows-based systems, every backslash (\) should be replaced with a double backslash (\\). For instance:

\\server\images\screenshots\ becomes \\\\server\\images\\screenshots\\

SSL Certificates

Avo Assure web server runs on HTTPS to provide secure communication.

An X.509 certificate is necessary for HTTPS, with recommendations to use a certificate signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA).

For seamless integration with third-party applications, Avo recommends using a certificate signed by a publicly trusted CA authority like DigiCert or Let's Encrypt. To use any other set of certificates, two files are required from the certificate issuer: CERT file (public key) and Key file (unencrypted private key). For example, if the server machine is in the example.com domain, then the certificate and key files will be required for the example.com domain.

Dashboard Database Server Requirements

Users utilizing the Avo Assure Dashboard will need Java SE Development Kit 8 or above for the adapter facilitating data transfer from the database to the dashboard.

Ensuring the mentioned specifications is mandatory for smooth functioning of Avo Assure.
