Overview

Provides platform, Center, CVSM, and Global Center sizing guidance.

Scale drivers

Cisco Cyber Vision scale depends on component count, flow volume, Sensor activity, Center DPI, retention, synchronization, and recovery behavior.

Release 5.5.x platform scale reference

Release 5.5.x platform planning includes the CV-CNTR-M6N and CV-CNTR-M8 Center appliance classes, with Global Center scale kept on the published M6N figures.

Center sizing factors and tiers

Size Cyber Vision Centers by considering component count, stored flows, Sensor count, Center DPI, retention, replay behavior, growth, FIPS mode, and VM or cloud requirements.

Headroom planning

Do not design Cyber Vision production deployments to operate continuously at published maximum values.

CVSM scale planning

Size CVSM separately from Center and Global Center workloads.

Global Center scale planning

Size a Global Center separately from a Local Center because synchronization activity and aggregate component count create different workload patterns.
