Citrix SD-WAN Platforms
• Three ports are supported (apA.1, apA.2, and Primary), except for Amazon Web Services
instances, which support only a single port.
For step-by-step instructions on installing and deploying an SD-WAN VPX-SE, see the following:
• Installing VPX-SE on VMware ESXi – See Installing and Deploying an SD-WAN VPX-SE on ESXi.
• Installing SD-WAN VPX-SE on XenServer – The procedures for installing an SD-WAN Virtual WAN
(Standard Edition) VPX (SD-WAN VPX-SE) and an SD-WAN WAN Optimization appliance (WANOP
VPX) are similar. However, there are some critical dierences, as outlined in Dierences Between
an SD-WAN VPX-VW and WAN OP VPX Installation.
Prerequisites

This section outlines the hardware and soware requirements for Citrix SD-WAN Virtual Appliance
(SD-WAN VPX-SE), and defines the platform dependencies.
NOTE
• From 10.2.6 and 11.0.3 release onwards, it is mandatory to change the default admin user
account password while provisioning any SD-WAN appliance or deploying a new SD-WAN
SE VPX. This change is enforced using both CLI and UI.
• A system maintenance account - CBVWSSH, exists for development and debugging and has
no external login permissions. The account can only be accessed through a regular admin-
istrative user’s CLI session.
With 10.2.6 release, the default password is the serial number of the SD-WAN appliance and is man-
dated to change on first time logon. The LOM access will also be disabled.
Hardware requirements
The SD-WAN VPX-SE hardware requirements for the hosting platform are as follows:
• Virtual CPUs: 4 Core, 2.7 GHz (or equivalent) processor or better.
• Memory: 4 GB RAM
• Management Interface: 1 (default)
Disk space requirements
