Network Requirements
Table 2. Network Requirements.

Details
In addition to the hardware requirements specified in Table 1, be aware of the following network requirements:
• Do not use Diamond video cards. They are packaged with a program titled Intel Net caster. This
program is incompatible with our software.
• Except for your (optional) modem line, and/or Internet connection, there should be no way for any
out-of-network computer to communicate with the testing workstations.
Note: Testing workstations need to have an Internet connection in order to fully comply with the Level 3
requirements.
• The Windows 2003 server must have Service Pack 2.
• All the computers must be connected to the LAN.
• The drive letter F: should not exist prior to Prometric software installation. If F: does exist (because it is
being used for a partition, device, etc.), assign a different, unused letter to that partition or device before
beginning the APTC installation. During the installation, the drive F: will be automatically created.
• Hard drives must use the NTFS file system.
• The 2003 server must be set up as the primary Domain Controller of a separate Domain (do not set it up
in a sub-Domain, trusted Domain, shadow Domain or stand-alone configuration).
• Log into the Windows 2003 Server as the administrator, not an equivalent.
• Make sure that TCP/IP is the only protocol used during the Network Setup.

Additional Network Configurations

Table 3. Additional Network Configurations.

Details
Network and router configurations must be able to access:
• Port 1555, 11001, 11002, 443, 80 bidirectional traffic
• “Table 4. IP Addresses and Ranges.” contains complete list of network destinations and associated ports for
configuration by IP address
• “Table 5. Host Names.” contains complete list of network destinations and associate ports by host name
Internet Explorer Trusted Sites:
• *.prometric.com
• *.microsoft.com
(Wildcard* indicates that that all Prometric and Microsoft sites are trusted.)
Note: If you do not want to set Internet Explorer to trust all Prometric and Microsoft sites, add the individual
sites listed in “Table 5. Host Names.”

Installation

Server Installation Basics

Table 6. Server Installation Basics.

Details
• To begin the installation procedure, boot directly from the Windows Server 2003 SP2 CD.
• The set-up creates disk partitions on the computer running Windows Server 2003, formats the drive, and
then copies installation files from the CD to the server.
• Prometric does not allow the use of Virtual Machine (VM) technology for test delivery.
Notes:
• Your CD-ROM must support bootable CDs.
• When you configure partitions and format drives, all data on the server hard drive is destroyed.
• These instructions assume that you are installing Windows Server 2003 on a computer that is not already
running Windows. Avoid upgrading from an existing Operating System by installing a fresh version of
Windows Server 2003.
