Overview

Provides Sensor, FIPS, VM, cloud, bandwidth, and recovery planning guidance for Cisco Cyber Vision deployments.

Sensor performance planning

Plan Sensors by using observed packet rate, mirrored traffic scope, feature usage, and supported platform compatibility.

FIPS Sensor constraints

Use only FIPS-supported Center and Sensor combinations for Release 5.5.x FIPS deployments.

VM and cloud deployment planning

Release 5.5.x Center compatibility includes VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, Nutanix AOS, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and CVSM VM deployment planning.

Cloud sizing guidance

Use each cloud sizing table only for the Cisco Cyber Vision cloud platform that the table names.

FIPS and cloud constraints

Do not assume that public cloud marketplace images or non-standard cloud environments are FIPS-compliant.

Bandwidth and recovery behavior

Bandwidth demand can increase during recovery because Sensors and Centers may replay stored data after connectivity returns.
