About Cisco Secure Virtual Appliances

Cisco Secure virtual appliances function the same as physical Cisco Secure Email Gateway, Cisco Secure Web Appliance, or Cisco Secure Email and Web Manager hardware appliances, with only a few minor differences, which are documented in Managing Your Cisco Secure Virtual Appliance.

Virtual Appliance Models for VMWare ESXi Deployments


Note

Except as explicitly stated in the AsyncOS documentation, modifications to the ESXi configurations defined in the OVF are not supported.

Cisco Content Security virtual appliance OVF images allows you to switch from the pre-configured memory values to the new maximum values as follows:

  • M100v /C100v models: 6 GB to 8 GB

  • M300v / M600v / C300v / C600v models: 8 GB to 16 GB
