1About this documentation

Document purpose

This quickstart guide shows how to connect, congure and install Cisco Cyber Vision as a

virtual machine running on VMware ESXi and on HyperV.

This documentaon is applicable to system version 3.0.1.

as to prevent damage to property.

The noces referring to your personal safety and to your property damage are

highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol described below. These noces are

graded according to the degree of danger.

WARNING

Indicates risks that involve industrial network safety or producon failure that could possibly

result in personal injury or severe property damage if proper precauons are not taken.

IMPORTANT

Indicates risks that could involve property or Cisco equipment damage and minor personal

injury if proper precauons are not taken.

Note

Indicates important informaon on the product described in the documentaon to which

aenon should be paid.

2Information & Characteristics

The Cisco Cyber Vision soluon is based on a 2-er architecture made of:

Edge sensors which are installed in the industrial network. These sensors are used to

capture network trac, decode protocols using the Cisco Deep Packet Inspecon

engine and send meaningful informaon to the Cisco Cyber Vision Center.

The Cisco Cyber Vision Center, a central plaorm gathering data from all the Edge

Sensors and acng as the monitoring, detecon and management plaorm for the

whole soluon.

The Center is therefore the central point of the Cisco Cyber Vision product. In the case of

a Virtual Center, the Center runs as a virtual machine, which is hosted on an appropriate

infrastructure.

To operate, the Center relies on two separate networks, respecvely connected to the

following interfaces:

The Administraon network interface, which gives access to the user interface.

The Collecon network interface, which connects the Center to the sensors.

3Requirements for installation

Make sure the condions listed below are met before installing Cisco Cyber Vision as a

virtual machine.

Required conguraon for a VM:

Hypervisor:

VMware vSphere 6.x or later.

OR

Microso Hyper-V Server 2016 or later.

Make sure the hypervisor used is set with the rights necessary for a new VM

instanaon.

VM sizing

Minimum – up to 500 components:

▪ CPU: Intel Xeon, 4 cores

▪ RAM: 8GB

▪ Storage: 300GB SSD

Recommended:

▪ CPU: Intel Xeon, 8 cores

▪ RAM: 16GB minimum

▪ Storage: 2x500GB SSD minimum

Required resources:

Two IP addresses: The Center needs two interfaces. One receives protocol data from

the sensors (Collecon network interface), the other is used to access the web

interface and for SSH remote administraon (Administraon network interface).

An IP address for each sensor to connect (preferably on a dedicated LAN or VLAN for

connecons between the sensors and the Center i.e. the Industrial network

interface).

A NTP server accessible from the Center (me is generally retrieved on a router).

A machine name which has to be unique (either congured on the DNS, or to be

congured on each client). This is essenal for the security exchanges setup between

a client (humans or API) and the Center.

4Install the Virtual Center

You need to complete several steps to install the Virtual Center:

1. Retrieve the Cisco Cyber Vision installaon le.

2. Create a Virtual Machine on ESXi and deploy Cisco Cyber Vision ova le on the VM.

OR

Create a Virtual Machine on Hyper-V, set the disk size, create and map the network

interfaces.

The only conguraons that may be required during deployment are memory and

disks size customizaon.

3. Congure the Cisco Cyber Vision Center.

Retrieve the installation file

Before starng the VM installaon, you must retrieve the virtual machine installaon ova

le.

To retrieve the virtual machine installaon le:

1. Access Cisco Cyber Vision Soware Download plaorm.

2. Download the ova le from the last version released.

To verify the le integrity (recommended):

To verify that the le you just downloaded is healthy, use the SHA256 checksum provided

by Cisco.

1. Linux users can type on their shell prompt the command:

sha256sum CiscoCyberVision-<TYPE><VERSION>.<EXT>

2. Compare both checksums.

If both checksums are idencal it means the le is healthy.

If the checksums do not match try to download the le again.

If, aer downloading the le again the checksums sll don’t match,

please contact Cisco support.

ESXi

Create a Virtual Machine

Before taking the steps below to create a VM on ESXi, you must set two network

interfaces (the Administraon and the Collecon network interfaces) accordingly to the

infrastructure of the network. To do so, refer to VMware ESXi documentaon.

To create the Virtual Machine and deploy Cisco Cyber Vision:

1. Login to VMware EXSi.

2. Click Create/Register VM.

The wizard to create a new virtual machine opens.

3. Click Deploy a virtual machine from an OVF or OVA le.

6. Map the network interfaces you have previously created to the VM's ports (1), as

shown below:

The Administraon network interface as eth0.

The Collecon network interface as eth1.

7. Set disk provisioning as Thin (2).

8. Disable the virtual machine's automac start (3).
