Internet Information Services (IIS)
The DCM Provider and Client Portals require Internet Information Services (IIS) to be enabled.
Internet Information Services (IIS) for Windows® Server is a flexible, secure and manageable Web server for hosting anything on the Web. From media streaming to web applications, IIS's scalable and open architecture is ready to handle the most demanding tasks.
Many DCM clients choose to enable IIS on a separate server to the DCM database for extra security.
How to access
DCM Support will then create a Direct CONNECT URL for you to use to gain access to the Provider Portal. The Client/Patient Portal can be accessed from the Provider Portal or the Client/Patient can launch their portal directly from a tiny URL that can be sent to them via email or SMS.
