Running the Accessibility Test
Explanation
PLATO Learning provides an accssibilty test to ensure you network and workstation is configured to access all necessary websites.
Resolution
A successful run of the PLE Accessibility test looks like this:
If you see a red X instead of a white check mark in a green circle for any of the seven tests, you may need to make additional changes to your network configuration in order to access PLE successfully.
Passing the test above will ensure that your workstation will be able to navigate to these sites:
http://redirect.ple.platoweb.com
http://www.platoweb.com (needed for access to PLATO Xtras)
http://www.platoweb01.com (needed for access to PLATO Xtras)
http://contentlaunch.ple.platoweb.com
http://educator.ple.platoweb.com
http://learner.ple.platoweb.com
http://contentstore.ple.platoweb.com
These are new URLs added in the Spring 2011 Release and must also be configured:
http://rs.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide reader support in content)
http://vf1.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf2.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf3.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf4.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf5.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf6.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf7.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf8.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf9.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
http://vf10.ple.platoweb.com (used to provide text-to-speech in content)
You will also need to be able to connect to these sites in order for workstations to download and install the required plug-ins from Adobe:
You must be able to access the akamaitechnologies.com domain (IP 72.247.242.187). You cannot test this domain by navigating directly to the URL. To verify this, select Start > Run > then enter cmd to bring up a command prompt, then enter tracert 72.247.242.187. The route is traced to a URL on akamaitechnologies.com.
