installed without interrupting the installation, if these are not available on the machines prior to
installing one-X Communicator.
If you are using proxy server to access internet and use automatic proxy detection or automatic
configuration script, installer would not be able to access the internet to download the pre-
requisites. In this case, it is recommended that you download and install .NET 4 framework prior
to one-X Communicator installation. This framework is available at -
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17718
