Introduction to IIS
Introduction to IIS
IIS stands for Internet Information Services or Internet Information Server.
Introduction to IIS

Usage

• According to Netcraft, IIS is
the second most popular
web server in the world,
behind Apache HTTP Server.
As of July 2013, the market
share of IIS was almost 20%
(19.45%), a 2.45% increase of
total market share compared
to June.
Introduction to IIS

History

•The first Microsoft web server was
a research project at the European
Microsoft Windows NT Academic
Centre (EMWAC), part of
the University of Edinburgh in
Scotland, and was distributed
as freeware . However, since the
EMWAC server was unable to scale
to handle the volume of traffic
going to Microsoft.com, Microsoft
was forced to develop its own web
server, IIS.
Introduction to IIS

•Anonymous authentication
•Basic access authentication

Features

•Digest access authentication
•Integrated Windows Authentication
•UNC authentication
•.NET Passport Authentication
(Removed in Windows Server 2008
and IIS 7.0)
•Certificate authentication
Introduction to IIS

Security modules – Used to perform many tasks related to security in the requestprocessing pipeline, such as specifying authentication schemes, performing URL
authorization, and filtering requests.

Content modules – Used to perform tasks related to content in the request-processing
pipeline, such as processing requests for static files, returning a default page when a client
does not specify a resource in a request, and listing the contents of a directory.

Features

Compression modules – Used to perform tasks related to compression in the requestprocessing pipeline, such as compressing responses, applying Gzip compression transfer
coding to responses, and performing pre-compression of static content.
Caching modules – Used to perform tasks related to caching in the request-processing
pipeline, such as storing processed information in memory on the server and using cached
content in subsequent requests for the same resource.
Logging and Diagnostics modules – Used to perform tasks related to logging and
diagnostics in the request-processing pipeline, such as passing information and
processing status to HTTP. sys for logging, reporting events, and tracking requests
currently executing in worker processes
Introduction to IIS

Security

• Earlier versions of IIS were hit with a
number of vulnerabilities, especially the
CA-2001-13 which led to the
infamous Code Red worm ; however, both
versions 6.0 and 7.0 currently have no
reported issues with this specific
vulnerability . In IIS 6.0 Microsoft opted to
change the behaviour of pre-installed ISAPI
handlers, many of which were culprits in
the vulnerabilities of 4.0 and 5.0, thus
reducing the attack surface of IIS. In
addition, IIS 6.0 added a feature called
"Web Service Extensions" that prevents IIS
from launching any program without
explicit permission by an administrator.
Configuring IIS
Configuring Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS)
This topic describes manual configuration settings for Internet Information
Services (IIS)
Before you begin
The Web Server Plug-ins Configuration Tool configures the web server. This
topic describes how to configure the Internet Information Services (IIS) Web
Server manually. Other procedures in Editing web server configuration
files describe configuring other supported web servers
You must have read/write access to the plugins_root directory to perform this
task.
About this task
Use the following procedure to manually reproduce how the Web Server Plugins Configuration Tool configures the Microsoft® Internet Information Services
Web Server.
Configuring IIS
Procedure
Configure IIS Version 6.0.
1)

2)
3)
4)
5)
6)

Start the IIS application and create a new virtual directory for the website
instance that you intend to work with WebSphere® Application Server. These
instructions assume that you are using the Default Web Site.Click Programs >
Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager on a
Windows® Server 2003 Standard Edition system, for example.
Expand the tree on the left until you see Default Web Site.Right-click Default
Web Site > New > Virtual Directory to create the directory with a default
installation
Type sePlugins in the Alias field in the Virtual Directory Alias panel, then
click Next.
Browse to the plugins_rootbinIIS_web_server_name directory in the Path field of
the Web Site Content Directory panel , then click Next.For example, select
the C:Program FilesIBMWebSpherePluginsbinIIS_webserver1 directory.
Select the appropriate permission check boxes in the Virtual Directory Access
Permissions panel.Select the Read check box and the Execute (such as ISAPI
applications or CGI) check box, for example.
Click Next to add the sePlugins virtual directory to your default website
Configuring IIS
7)

Click Finish when the success message displays.

8)

Copy the plug-in binaries to the plugins_rootbin/IIS_server_name
directory.
For example. copy the plug-in binary files to the C:Program
FilesIBMWebSpherePluginsbinIIS_webserver1 directory.
The plugin-cfg.loc file resides in this directory. The first line of
the plugin-cfg.loc file identifies the location of the plugin-cfg.xml file
9)

Expand the Web Sites folder in the left pane navigation tree of the IIS
Manager panel.
10) Right-click Default Web Site in the navigation tree and click Properties
11) Add the Internet Services Application Programming Interface (ISAPI) filter
into the IIS configuration.
In the Default Web Site Properties panel, perform the following steps:
Configuring IIS
a)
b)
c)
d)

Click the ISAPI Filters tab.
Click Add to open the Add/Edit Filter Properties dialog window.
Type iisWASPlugin in the Filter name field.
Click Browse to select the C:Program
FilesIBMWebSpherePluginsbinIIS_webserver1iisWASPlugin_http.dllfile
for the value of the Executable field.Browse to
your plugins_root binIIS_web_server_name directory to select
the iisWASPlugin_http.dll file.
e) Click OK to close the Add/Edit Filter Properties dialog window.
f) Click OK to close the Default Web Site Properties window.
12) Set the value in the plugin-cfg.loc file to the location of the configuration file.
Set the location to the plugins_root config webserver_name plugin-cfg.xml file, which
might be C:Program FilesIBMWebSpherePluginsconfigIIS_webserver1plugincfg.xml file.
The location varies depending on how you have configured your system. If the web server
and the application server are on separate machines, you have a remote installation.
If the two servers are on the same machine, you have a local installation.
Local example:
Configuring IIS
"C:IBMWebSpherePluginsconfigwebserver1plugin-cfg.xml"

13) Configure the web server to run WebSphere Application Server
extensions:
a.Expand the left pane navigation tree and click on the Web Service Extensions folder in
the IIS Manager panel.
b.Click Add a new web service extension to open the New Web Service Extensiondialog
window.
c.In the Extension name field, type WASPlugin as the name of the new web service
extension.
d.Click Add to open the Add file dialog window.
e.In the Path to file field, type the path or click Browse to navigate to the
correctiisWASPlugin_http.dll file that the new web service extension requires, and
clickOK.
f.Select the Set extension status to Allowed check box to automatically set the status of
the new web service extension to Allowed and click OK.
Configuring IIS
Enable IIS Version 6.0, IIS Version 7.x, or IIS Version 8.0 to communicate with a
web server plug-in that is running in 32–bit mode.
The web server plug-in for IIS is available in both 32-bit, and 64-bit versions.
When using the 32-bit version plug-in on a Microsoft Windows 64-bit operating
system, the following steps should be taken to enable the native 64-bit IIS to
run the plug-in under a 32-bit worker process.
The Windows Server TechNet topic Running 32-bit Applications on 64-bit
Windows describes how to enable the native 64-bit IIS Version 6.0 to run the
web server plug-in under a 32-bit worker process.
Complete the following steps to enable the native 64-bit IIS Version 7.x to run
the web server plug-in under a 32-bit worker process
Configuring IIS
1.Launch the IIS Version 7.x or IIS Version 8.0 administrative console.
2.On the connections page, expand the Sites node, and select the website that
is intended for the web server plug-in.
3.On the actions page, click Basic Settings, and make a note of the
Application Pool name.
4.Click Cancel , and then select the Application Pools node on the
connections page.
5.On the features page, right-click the application pool that you noted in the
earlier step, and then choose Advanced Settings.
6.Set the Enable 32-bit Applications property to True.
7.Click OK to complete the configuration change.
8.Restart the corresponding application pool
Configuring IIS
Results
This procedure results in re-configuring the Internet Information Services (IIS)
Web Server.

Note: On some editions of the Windows operating system,
the http_plugin.log file is not created automatically when the plug-in is installed
and the IIS Web Server is started. If the http_plugin.log file is not created after
performing the procedure described above, take the following steps:Open a
Windows Explorer window.
Browse to the plugins_rootlogsweb_server_name directory.
Share the folder and give full-control permission to everyone.
