4. © 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 4 MSE is now offered as a virtual appliance to help support lower- level, smaller deployments. The MSE virtual appliance software is distributed as an Open Virtualization Archive (OVA) file. The customer can install MSE virtual appliance using any of the method for deploying an OVF supported by the VMware environment.

5. © 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 5 When the MSE is located on the virtual appliance, the license is validated against VUDI (Virtual Unique Device Identifier) instead of UDI. The license issue and installation process is exactly the same, as with the physical appliance, except instead of using a UDI, we will use a Virtual Unique Device Identifier (VUDI) which can be viewed by running “show csludi” on the MSE. Unlike the MSE physical appliance, the customer must have an activation license for the virtual appliance. Without an activation license, the MSE starts in evaluation mode. Even if the licenses are present on the host, it rejects the permanent license if the activation license is not installed.

6. © 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 6 Red Hat Linux Enterprise server 5.5 64-bit operating system installations are supported. The recommended deployments for a virtual appliance are UCS and ESX/ESXi 4.1 and later with either local storage or SAN over fiber channel.

Use VM ESXi 4.1 or later. Default username and password for ESX/i are ‘ root’ and (blank), just leave blank and hit enter – no password. Configure the IP address and make certain to select the correct Network Adapter. Once ESXi is setup, you can use a Win XP/7 machine and connect to the ESXi host through vSphere client using the above configured IP address and login credentials.
