Lasernet 11 Installation and Setup Guide

This guide introduces the applications and services that comprise Lasernet 11 and describes how to install and configure them. After completing the installation and setup process described below, you will have an operational basic Lasernet 11 system.

Intended Audience

This guide is intended for IT administrators and technical consultants who set up Lasernet systems.

An understanding of basic IT concepts and some IT administration knowledge is assumed. A basic understanding of Lasernet concepts (such as Lasernet configurations) is also assumed.

Scope

This guide covers Lasernet installation and basic system configuration for Lasernet 11 and later only.

Note

For information about installing Lasernet 10, see the Lasernet Installation Guide.

This guide does not describe Lasernet system administration. For information about Lasernet administration, see the Lasernet Administration Guide.

Although this guide describes how to deploy Lasernet configurations to Lasernet environments, it does not describe how to create those Lasernet configurations (which describe the document workflows that Lasernet environments run). For information on that subject, see the Lasernet Developer Guide.

Lasernet 11 Installation and Setup Process

To get a Lasernet 11 system up and running, you must install software on servers and clients, and then complete basic configuration and system setup tasks.

This guide will help you to complete the following process:
