Prerequisites

The Plant SCADA Access Anywhere Server has been tested on the following Microsoft® operating systems:

• Windows Server 2012 R2

• Windows Server 2016

• Windows Server 2019.

The Access Anywhere Server needs to be installed on the RDP server where Plant SCADA resides. It will have minimal impact on the RDP host’s performance and scalability.

Important: Microsoft Windows Server should not be configured as a Domain Controller.

The Access Anywhere Server includes a built-in web server. This includes a copy of the Access Anywhere web components.

Note: If you are running Plant SCADA Access Anywhere on an IPv6 network, it is recommended you configure a hostname that refers to the Access Anywhere Server. A hostname ensures the server is compatible with all supported browsers. If you attempt to connect to the Access Anywhere Server using a standard format IPv6 address in Internet Explorer, the connection will not be successful.
