### Adjusting Plesk Platform Setup

Under this tab you can adjust the Plesk platform settings:

1. Select the hosting type and define whether the website options will be available for the Hosting Plan or not. Select the type of hosting to provide from the Physical hosting type drop-down menu:

- To provide the fill-featured hosting (website, databases, mail, etc), select Physical hosting. Physical hosting type cannot later be changed into forwarding or not set hosting type.
- To provide the standard domain forwarding, select Standard forwarding. Standard Forwarding redirects a domain to a different URL with the destination URL appearing in the browser address window. Web content is stored somewhere outside Plesk. Later the hosting plan can be upgraded from forwarding hosting type to physical hosting.
- To provide the frame domain forwarding, select Frame forwarding. Frame Forwarding redirects a domain to a different URL while keeping the original domain name in the browser address window. Web content is stored somewhere outside Plesk. Later the hosting plan can be upgraded from forwarding hosting type to physical hosting.
- To provide the Plesk domain without hosting at all (only domain registration, no mail, no website and databases, no forwarding), select Do not set. In this case, there will be no Services/Applications selection step in the Hosting Plan creation wizard. This type of service is similar to the No physical hosting option in the previous Parallels Business Automation - Standard version. This undefined hosting type was added to Parallels Business Automation - Standard to reach the full compatibility with Plesk original services. The no-hosting subscription can later be upgraded to any of the services available for Plesk domains, i.e., physical hosting, frame forwarding, or standard forwarding.

1. Select the Web statistics engine a customer will use from the Web statistics engine menu. If on the Plesk services selection step of the plan creation wizard you will enable Web statistics support, customers will use this particular web statistics engine.
2. For Windows platform, select the version of Microsoft ASP.NET from the ASP.NET runtime version menu. If on the Plesk services selection step of the plan creation wizard you will enable Microsoft ASP.NET support, customers will use this particular version of Microsoft ASP.NET.
3. For Windows platform, select the version of PHP from the PHP version drop-down menu.
4. Select the Web statistics engine a customer will use from the Web statistics engine menu. If on the Plesk services selection step of the plan creation wizard you will enable Web statistics support, customers will use this particular web statistics engine.
5. To assign a dedicated IP address to a Plesk Domain right after a subscription creation, check the Auto-assign dedicated IP box. The dedicated IP assignment means that the internal requests addressed to the Plesk domain come directly to a Plesk domain. If the current IP address is shared, then the internal requests addressed to a Plesk domain come through the Plesk server IP address and then the request is redirected to the internal IP address assigned to a Plesk domain.
