There are two Web-to-Host Wizard installation setup options:
You can use either setup option for evaluation or production installations.
Web-to-Host Wizard requires a Windows platform to operate. If you want to install the Web-to-Host Wizard on the same physical platform as your web server, the web server must be a Windows server platform.
Installing the Web-to-Host Wizard and serving BlueZone Web-to-Host from the same physical platform is the easiest way to implement BlueZone Web-to-Host.
You can install the Web-to-Host Wizard on any Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 computer, use the Wizard to create and configure your BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files, and then copy or transfer the BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files to the web server of your choice.
The BlueZone Web-to-Host Wizard has a built-in web server that you can use to test your BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files without transferring or copying the files to the web server.
In a production environment, BlueZone Web-to-Host is served up from a server class web server. However, to evaluate BlueZone Web-to-Host, you do not need a web server or even a server.
You can install the BlueZone Web-to-Host Wizard on any Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 computer, and use the built-in Web-to-Host Wizard web server to serve up the BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files. By using the built-in Web-to-Host Wizard web server, you can install, configure, and start serving up BlueZone emulation client sessions.
You can also install the BlueZone Web-to-Host Wizard on a Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 computer with the IIS web server feature enabled.
When it is time to convert from the evaluation installation to a production installation, the BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files can continue to be created and configured using the Web-to-Host Wizard that you already have installed and running on your Windows computer. The difference will be that the output of the Wizard (the BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files) are now copied or transferred to your production web server.
If your production web server is a Microsoft server, you can install the Web-to-Host Wizard on the new server and use the import feature to import the BlueZone Web-to-Host web server files that you created on your Windows machine during the evaluation period.
