Understand IIS feature settings for MES Web Portal

Following is a list of the IIS feature delegations whose settings must be specified either in the MES Web Portal web.config file (if the feature delegation in IIS Manager is set to Read/Write) or the IIS applicationHost.config file (if the feature delegation in IIS Manager is set to Read Only). The headings in the list are the actual names of the feature delegations, which are listed in the Features Delegation screen of IIS Manager.

If any of the MES Web Portal configuration settings are specified in the IIS applicationHost.config file, then they must be removed from the MES Web Portal web.config file.
