## Selecting and Configuring Software Components Used on the Server (Windows Hosting)

Parallels Plesk Panel supports a variety of third-party software components, from antivirus solutions to Web mail servers. You can choose the components that should be used on your server.

To see the list of available components and to select the software components that should be used by Parallels Plesk Panel:

1. Go to Home > Server Components (in the Server group).

   All available components are displayed in the list. The current state of a component is marked by an icon:

   - means that Parallels Plesk Panel is using this component, and the component is working.
   - means that Parallels Plesk Panel is not using this component (usually because a license key has expired or missing), but the component is working.
   - means that Parallels Plesk Panel is not using this component, because the component is stopped.
   - means that Parallels Plesk Panel is not using this component, but the component is installed in the system and available.
2. Click the component name (for example, Mail Server) and select the required component from the list of available components supported by Parallels Plesk Panel.
3. Click OK. Parallels Plesk Panel will start the selected component.

   Some components (for example, Merak Mail Server) can be configured by clicking their name in the Component version table. Individual component settings depend on the component. After finishing the configuration of a component, click OK.

To refresh the list of available components, click Refresh.
