ADC-VX Management
404 Document ID: RDWR-ALOS-V2900_AG1302
Each vADC comprises a vSP (Virtualized Switch Processor) and a vMP (Virtualized Management
Processor), providing the vADCs with their own set of resources, network infrastructure, and
services that are completely independent of neighboring vADCs. This enables multiple users to run
vADCs and allocate resources to these vADCs without introducing any risk to the other vADCs within
the shared physical environment.
vADC management is divided between two management roles:
• The Global Administrator creates, initially configures, and monitors vADCs. In addition, one of
the main tasks of the Global Administrator is to dynamically allocate CPU and throughput
resources by assigning capacity units and adjusting throughput limits to a vADC. For more
details on capacity units and throughput, see Allocating and Removing Processing Power
(Capacity Units) and Throughput Resources, page 406). For more details on the Global
Administrator’s tasks, see Global Administrator, page 405).
• The vADC Administrator is responsible for the day-to-day configuration and maintenance of
vADCs using the same tasks as with traditional ADCs, except for those vADC tasks that only the
Global Administrator performs. For more details on the vADC Administrator’s tasks, see vADC
Administrator, page 409).
