Working with Virtual Devices on a Multi-Domain Server

When working with Virtual Devices in Multi-Domain Server, you must use the applicable Domain Management Server SmartConsole.

Otherwise, the configuration procedures are the same to those for a Security Management Server.

Multi-Domain Server treats Virtual Devices in the same way as physical devices.

You can add as many Virtual Systems to Domain Management Servers as your license permits.

Virtual Systems added to a Domain Management Server do not have to reside on the same VSX Gateway or cluster.

Adding a Virtual System to a Domain Management Server

To add a new Virtual System to a Domain Management Server:

1. Launch SmartConsole from the appropriate Domain Management Server.

2. Create and configure the Virtual System (see Working with Virtual Systems).

3. Define and install a security policy.

To add Virtual Routers and Virtual Switches to a Domain Management Server:
