Before You Install
Review the following topics before attempting to install Cisco Prime Infrastructure.
Understanding System Requirements
Prime Infrastructure is supplied as an appliance, which is a virtual machine (VM) that includes the application itself and a 
secured, hardened, 64-bit Red Hat Linux Enterprise Server operating system. The appliance comes in two main forms:
Virtual: The virtual appliance is packaged as an Open Virtualization Archive (OVA) file, which must be installed on a 
user-supplied, qualified server running VMware ESXi. This form allows you to run on the server hardware of your choice. 
You can also install the virtual appliance in any of four configurations, each optimized for a different size of enterprise 
network. For hardware requirements and capacities for each of the virtual appliance’s size options, see 
Physical: The physical appliance is packaged as a rack-mountable server, with VMware ESXi and the Prime Infrastructure 
VM pre-installed and configured for you. You have a choice of standard and high-performance configurations. For physical 
appliance hardware specifications and capacities, see
