Anaconda Enterprise: Documentation

# Installation

## Requirements

In order to install Fusion, your system must have at least:

- Microsoft Windows 7 or higher OR macOS.

- Microsoft Excel 2016, version 15.18 or higher, for Windows or macOS.

  NOTE: If you just installed Excel and have not opened it yet, open and close Excel before proceeding.

- Internet Explorer, version 11 or higher, or Edge for Windows, or any browser for macOS.

- Internet connection–required to install and run Fusion.

- An Anaconda subscription license file.

### Network requirements

The following network ports are used by Fusion and can be configured during the installation process.

Component | Port
--- | ---
Anaconda Fusion Server | 5987
Anaconda Fusion Notebook Server | 9888

## Recommended installation

If you already have Anaconda installed on your computer, you must install Fusion using Navigator to prevent multiple copies of Anaconda from being installed on your system. Multiple installations could lead to system conflicts.

## Alternative installation

If you do not have Anaconda installed on your computer, and do not want to follow the recommended installation method–using Navigator–you can also install Fusion with conda, a standalone installer, or by using Python2.

NOTE: The instructions differ depending on which OS you are installing on.
