Getting started

Overview

Deploy Cisco Cyber Vision in Microsoft Azure using a solution template available in the Azure Marketplace. When you deploy Cisco Cyber Vision using the Azure portal you can use an existing empty resource group and storage account (or create new ones). The solution template walks you through a set of configuration parameters that provide the initial setup of your Cisco Cyber Vision instance, allowing you to login to Cisco Cyber Vision web interface after first boot.

Prerequisites

  • An Azure account.

  • An SSH client (required to access the Cisco Cyber Vision Center console).

  • Communication path: Microsoft.Network/publicIPAddresses IPs for access to the Cisco Cyber Vision resources.

  • A Static IP (the default public IP may change after a reboot. This can cause an issue for sensors).

  • Minimum configuration to run and test the product are 4 vCPU and 16GB RAM.

  • SSD disks are mandatory.

Supported features

  • Center

  • Global Center

Limitations

The following features or hardware are not supported:

  • Dual interface Centers.

  • Sensors using the sensor management extension.

  • Cisco IC3000 ssh access from Center.


    Note

    For details about Center resources, refer to the Cisco Cyber Vision VM Installation Guide available in cisco.com.

IPs

The IP attributed during the VM creation is dynamic by default. The IP may change at the VM reboot. If you want this IP address to be static, you can set it during the VM deployment in Virtual Machine settings or change it later in the VM settings of the Azure portal by clicking the VM IP address and modifying the IP address assignment.
