Before starting the Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring (MBAM) installation, you must complete the prerequisites listed in this topic. These prerequisites apply to the MBAM Stand-alone topology and System Center Configuration Manager Integration topology.
If you are deploying MBAM with System Center Configuration Manager, you must complete additional prerequisites, which are listed in MBAM 2.5 Server Prerequisites that Apply Only to the Configuration Manager Integration Topology.

Service Principal Name (SPN) |
The web applications require an SPN for the virtual host name under the domain account that you use for the web application pools. If your administrative rights permit you to create SPNs in Active Directory Domain Services, MBAM creates the SPN for you. See Setspn for information about the rights required to create SPNs. If you do not have administrative rights to create SPNs, you must ask the Active Directory team to create the SPN for you by using the following command.
In the code example, the virtual host name is mbamvirtual.contoso.com, and the domain account used for the web application pools is contoso\mbamapppooluser. Obs! If you are configuring the web applications on separate servers and are using different host names for each web application, you must create a separate SPN for each web application. If you are setting up Load Balancing, use a virtual host name, which must the same for both web applications. For more information about registering SPNs for fully qualified, NetBIOS, and custom host names, see Planning How to Secure the MBAM Websites. |
