[email protected] 1. IP Office Linux Server Virtualization Companies are increasingly using virtual machines to support their business needs. The use of a virtual software platform allows the customer's IT staff flexibility to maximize the use of the platform's hardware to meet the individual needs of each virtual machines it hosts. It also provides them with access to various tools that ease maintenance and monitoring processes. For IP Office Release 11.0, for customer deployments Avaya supports the deployment of its Linux-based servers as virtual machines on: · VMware · Microsoft Hyper-V · Amazon Web Services For Server Edition and IP Office Select networks the virtual machines can be configured as primary, secondary, expansion or application servers. For support of IP500 V2 Preferred Edition systems the virtual machine can be configured as an application server. Avaya does not provide or support the virtual server software and hardware chosen by the customer. · Use this document in conjunction with the documentation for standard IP Office Server Edition and IP Office application deployments, see Related Documentation 11 . Those documents define the supported features, capacities and requirements of the virtual machine applications as part of the customer solution. This document only provides notes for the deployment of the server software as a virtual machine. · Avaya only supports virtual machines based on software images supplied by Avaya. Resellers and customers who create their own image files for virtual deployment are solely responsible for the support and maintenance of those products. IP Office Anywhere IP Office Anywhere is a special version of the Linux-based IP Office service intended for product demonstrations and evaluation. It includes a pre-built and pre-licensed IP Office configuration.

The Hypervisor is the one which provides the complete virtualization environment which will intend to virtualize as much as hardware and systems which will include the CPUs, Memory, network interfaces and so on. Because of the virtualization technologies such as the KVM and others such as ESXi, there has been a significant decrease in the usage if the resources and decrease in the costs involved.

  • Efficiently Protecting Virtualized Desktop Infrastructures Against
    Efficiently Protecting Virtualized Desktop Infrastructures Against Malware Performance Comparison between Traditional- and Centralized Antivirus Arris Huijgen University of Twente Graduation Committee University of Twente Dr. Pascal van Eck Radboud University Nijmegen Dr.ir. Erik Poll Deloitte Coen Steenbeek, MSc Henri Hambartsumyan, MSc June 18, 2013 Executive Summary The cloud is getting increasingly popular and also desktops are migrated to the cloud which are called Hosted Virtual Desktops (HVDs). Because virtualization makes hard- ware resources very flexible, it is often used to build a cloud platform. These desktops also need to be protected against malware. Virtualization software provider VMware added capabilities to its corporate product to provide antivirus protection from outside the Virtual Machine (VM) using its vShield module. Several antivirus vendors including Trend Micro developed antivirus software making use of this module. Because no comparisons have been done yet between traditional antivirus and antivirus software making making use of virtualization, research has been conducted compar- ing Trend Micro's traditional antivirus software Worry-Free Business Security (WFBS) with its vShield-compatible antivirus software called Deep Security (DS). This research showed that despite self-protection measures it is relatively easy to disable or remove the DS antivirus software inside the HVD without being detected. Moreover, it turned out that in this small environment simulating 10 HVDs, the performance of WFBS is much better compared to DS while DS also used much more resources. This is a remark- able result as DS is specifically aimed for virtualized environments and can therefore be expected to perform better than the traditional WFBS antivirus software.
