Installation and Configuration FAQ

Use this FAQ for current AIQ installation and configuration questions that do not require a dedicated procedure page.

What changed in this article

• Renamed the generic FAQ title so it is clear which book/context it belongs to.
• Reframed the FAQ as a routing and troubleshooting aid for installation/configuration topics.
• Added checks to avoid duplicating content that belongs in dedicated upgrade, Test Node, certificate, browser, or performance pages.

Validation workflow

1. Use this FAQ for short installation/configuration answers only when a dedicated article does not already cover the topic.
2. Link to the canonical procedure page when the answer requires multiple steps or risk controls.
3. Review FAQ entries periodically and promote repeated issues into standalone articles.

QuestionReview aboutnote: theThis usagepage ofnow porthas 9090a clear scope and should not become a dumping ground for HTTPunrelated and HTTPS topics.

It was mentioned that 9090 can be used for both HTTP and HTTPS. I guess what you are saying is that 9090 can be used both in HTTP and HTTPS and is required. 9091 is used for HTTPS only and is also required?

On the AIQ controller, you do NOT need to open either 9090 or 9091 for incoming test designer connections.

Ports 9090 and 9091 are used in the local communication that happens between the browser on your local computer and the Test Designer client running on your local computer (or locally within the test nodes when running scenarios)

So AIQ controller and test nodes instances should have 9090 and 9091 ports free (meaning not used by other processes other than Test Designer) but no need to allow incoming connections on those ports.

Could you tell us the supported authentication protocol in AIQ?

For Test Designer (A AIQ engine) We support

Basic authentication

NTLM authentication

Cookies authentication

Digest authentication

Now, in order to login into AIQ itself, we have

Internal credentials system

LDAP
