About Infoblox vNIOS Virtual Appliance for Microsoft Hyper-V


The Infoblox vNIOS for Microsoft Hyper-V is a virtual appliance designed to run on Microsoft Windows® Server 2019 and 2022. You can use Hyper-V Manager or SCVMM to install the vNIOS virtual appliance. You can configure the vNIOS virtual appliance as a Grid member or a reporting member. When you set up a vNIOS reporting virtual appliance, it is used solely for reporting purposes. You cannot add licenses to run other services such as DNS and DHCP on a reporting appliance.

The Infoblox reporting solution automates the collection, analysis, and presentation of core network service data that assists you in planning and mitigating network outage risks so that you can manage your networks more efficiently.
