* When running NIOS in MS Hyper-V with dynamic memory allocation enabled, your system might experience high memory usage. To avoid this issue, Infoblox recommends that you disable dynamic memory allocation.
* For optimal performance, vNIOS for Hyper-V is not recommended as a Grid Master or Grid Master Candidate.
* Specifications of vNIOS for Microsoft Azure Stack Hub are different from the other vNIOS for Microsoft Azure flavors. For the exact specifications, see Infoblox Installation Guide vNIOS for Microsoft Azure.
** To achieve best performance on your virtual appliances, follow the recommended specifications and allocate your resources within the limits of the licenses being installed on the appliances.
*** Specifications of Network Insight appliances for vNIOS for AWS and vNIOS for Azure are different from other vNIOS products. For detailed specifications, see the Infoblox Installation Guide vNIOS andInstallation Guide for vNIOS for AWS (DRAFT)for AWS, and Infoblox Installation Guide vNIOS for Microsoft Azure respectively.

1 NIOS for KVM is supported in the following environments: Red Hat OpenStack and Ubuntu. Note that only IB-V1405 as a reporting server has been qualified for Red Hat OpenStack.
2 vNIOS for AWS is supported on the IB-V4025 appliance running NIOS 8.5.2 or later, and IB-V4015 appliance running NIOS 8.6.2 or later. vNIOS for Azure and vNIOS for GCP instances are supported on IB-V4015 and IB-V4025 appliances running NIOS 8.6.2 or later.
vNIOS for AWS and vNIOS for Azure instances are supported only on the IB-V5005 appliance running NIOS 8.6.2 or later. For detailed specifications, see the the Infoblox Installation Guide for vNIOS for AWSfor AWS and Infoblox Installation Guide vNIOS for Microsoft Azure.

For information about the limitations on each vNIOS appliance, see see vNIOS for VMware Limitations.
