# Prerequisites
|
||
|
|
||
|
- **CentOS** (7.0+), **Debian** (9/Stretch+) or **Ubuntu** (16.04+) server. This playbook can take over your whole server or co-exist with other services that you have there.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- [Python](https://www.python.org/) being installed on the server. Most distributions install Python by default, but some don't (e.g. Ubuntu 18.04) and require manual installation (something like `apt-get install python`).
|
||
|
|
||
|
- the [Ansible](http://ansible.com/) program being installed on your own computer. It's used to run this playbook and configures your server for you
|
||
|
|
||
|
- properly configured DNS SRV record for `<your-domain>` (details in [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md#configuring-dns) below)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `matrix.<your-domain>` domain name pointing to your new server - this is where the Matrix Synapse server will live (details in [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md#configuring-dns) below)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `riot.<your-domain>` domain name pointing to your new server - this is where the Riot web UI will live (details in [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md#configuring-dns) below)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- some TCP/UDP ports open. This playbook configures the server's internal firewall for you. In most cases, you don't need to do anything special. But **if your server is running behind another firewall**, you'd need to open these ports: `80/tcp` (HTTP webserver), `443/tcp` (HTTPS webserver), `3478/tcp` (STUN over TCP), `3478/udp` (STUN over UDP), `8448/tcp` (Matrix federation HTTPS webserver), `49152-49172/udp` (TURN over UDP).

When ready to proceed, continue with [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md).
