Network Deployment (version 7.0.0.7 or 6.1.0.29) with a deployment manager and at least one managed node.
- You have federated all nodes into the deployment manager cell.
- You have created a WebSphere user account repository. It is recommended that an LDAP repository be federated with the TWSS base installer. See the WebSphere Application Server information center for details about performing these tasks.
- You have performed the database preparation steps described in the topic Preparing for the Telecom Web Services Server database.
- You have created clusters for the Telecom Web Services Server components you plan to install. Refer to the topic Creating the clusters for more information.

The TWSS base installer is organized so that the three major components (Access Gateway, Service Policy Manager, and Service Platform components) can be installed in any order.
To install the TWSS base components, complete the following steps:
