Prerequisite to install Web Application Attribute Group

You need to check the following set of prerequisites before you install the Web Application attribute group:
  • Run the host command in Windows Power Shell to check the version of PowerShell. If the version is not 5.1, then download the required version from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54616.
  • Check the version of the .NET framework. To check the version, in the registry, go to location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full. If the .NET framework is 4.6 or less, get the required version of installation for the .NET framework from https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=49982.
  • Then install the PowerShell module.
    • If the operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2, install the Carbon module using the command, Install-Module -Name Carbon.
    • If the operating system is Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2, install the IISAdministration module using the command Install-Module -Name IISAdministration.
    • The Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019 has all the required features. Installing IIS server from the server manager installs the IISAdministration module.
