vNIOS for Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 and 2012 R2 server appliances support most of the features of the Infoblox NIOS appliances, with the following limitations:

  • You must have a vNIOS license installed on the appliance before you can access the Infoblox GUI.
  • vNIOS appliances do not support the following features:
    • Configuration of port settings for MGMT, LAN, LAN2, and HA ports
    • The bloxTools environment
  • All the IB-VM appliance models support all the services provided by vNIOS virtual appliances, but Grid Master or Grid Master Candidate is not recommended.
  • The Captive Portal is supported only on IB-VM-1410 virtual appliances.
  • vNIOS appliances run on virtual hardware. They do not have sensors to monitor the physical CPU temperature, fan speed, and system temperature.
  • Changing the vNIOS appliance settings through the Hyper-V Manager or Virtual Machine Manager Administrator console may violate the terms of the vNIOS licensing and support models. The vNIOS appliance may not join the Grid or function properly.
