This topic describes how to install and configure Internet Information Service (IIS) for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client. To deploy the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client, you install the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components on a computer that running IIS 7.0 or IIS 8.0. A website for Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client is installed on the IIS.

IIS must have the following features enabled:

  • .NET Extensibility (on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008) or .NET Extensibility 4.5 (on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012)

  • ASP.NET (on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008) or ASP.NET 4.5 (on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012)

  • ISAPI Extensions

  • ISAPI Filters

  • Request Filtering

  • Windows Authentication

  • Static Content

  • HTTP Activation

The procedure is slightly different for the different versions of Windows. For more information, see the following sections:

  • Installing IIS Features on Windows 7
