We recommend installing FlowTraq Web and FlowTraq NBI Server on a Linux/Apache/PHP stack; however, many other platforms will work.
![[Note]](../common/images/admon/note.png) | Note |
|---|---|
Note: While FlowTraq Web Portal can connect to remote instances of FlowTraq Server, the FlowTraq Command Line Tools (which are included with FlowTraq Server) must be installed locally for FlowTraq Web Portal to function. |
FlowTraq NBI Server requires a PostgreSQL Server, installed either locally or remotely. In addition, the following standard packages must be installed locally on the host:
PHP5 interpreter and command line tools with support for Process Control (pcntl), POSIX, and PostgresQL (pgsql)
Web server (e.g. apache2) with PHP5 support (e.g. mod_php)

Important We strongly recommend configuring your web server to either only accept secure https connections or to automatically redirect http requests to https.
