Installing SD-WAN Appliances on the Microso Hyper-V Platform

January 12, 2021

To install NetScaler SD-WAN virtual appliances on Microso Windows Server, you must first install

Windows Server, with the Hyper-V role enabled, on a machine with adequate system resources. While

installing the Hyper-V role, be sure to specify the network interface cards (NICs) on the server that

Hyper-V uses to create the virtual networks. You can reserve some NICs for the host. Use the Hyper-V

Manager to perform the SD-WAN VPX installation.

SD-WAN VPX for Hyper-V is delivered in virtual hard disk (VHD) format. It includes the default configu-

ration for elements such as CPU, network interfaces, and hard-disk size and format. Aer you install

an SD-WAN VPX instance, you can configure its network adapters, add virtual NICs, assign the SD-WAN

IP address, subnet mask, and gateway, and complete the basic configuration of the virtual appliance.
