Installing the Microsoft Internet Information Service BTM extension

This section describes how to install the IIS BTM extension on Windows.

Before you begin

• Check that the Windows component IIS is installed.

To install the Microsoft Internet Information Service BTM extension

1. Install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable Package. If your Windows OS is 32 bit install the vcredist_x86.exe located in the agent distribution directory. If your Windows OS is 64 bit install the vcredist_x64.exe located in the agent distribution directory. If you are running your IIS in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit Windows OS also install vcredist_x86.exe. Note, you might have already done this for other BTM extension types. It only needs to be done once but make sure it was the right version (32 bit or 64 bit).
2. Deploy the Microsoft IIS BTM runtime toolkit.
3. Move the jar file to the IIS server and extract it to any folder on the server.
   
   The BTM IIS binary can be installed as:
   • An ISAPI Filter to monitor responses only. See Installing as an ISAPI filter below. 
   • An ISAPI Extension to monitor requests only. See Installing as an ISAPI extension below.
   • Both an ISAPI filter and ISAPI extension to monitor both requests and responses.
   
   Additionally, it can be installed in the following locations:
   • A virtual directory
   • A specific web site

   • All web sites

     Note

     Use the same btmiis_extension.dll for both the ISAPI Filter and ISAPI Extension when both are configured.
4. When you are done with the installation, restart IIS to activate the changes.
