Test New Brand Deploying Hosts

Hosts, formerly referred to as on-prem hosts, are physical or virtual appliances on which you run BloxOne services according to your license entitlements. Depending on your network infrastructure and how you want to implement hosts, you can deploy them by using Infoblox-provided hardware and OVA packages or via a bare-metal deployment and other supported open platforms.

Before you create service instances and associate them with deployed hosts, ensure that you understand the basics of deploying hosts for specific services. For more information, see the following:
