Introducing SMA 8200v for Hyper-V

This Getting Started Guide describes how to install SonicWall SMA 8200v on the Microsoft Hyper-V environment and provides basic configuration information. The SMA 8200v is a virtual appliance that has nearly all the features and functionality of a SonicWall SMA 1000 Series hardware appliance.

Feature supported on the SMA 8200v include:

• FIPS Mode (vendor approved)

• CMS

The SMA 8200v provides the following benefits:

• Cost savings

  • No need to purchase and maintain hardware appliances, reducing hardware costs, power consumption, and maintenance costs.

• Operational ease

  • In a virtual environment, new virtual appliances can easily be commissioned and old ones can be easily decommissioned.
  • Installation files are imported into the virtual environment with no need to run an installer.
  • Obtain high availability of your VPN using your virtual infrastructure’s high availability features.
• Easy reallocation of resources
• Strong security with the same operating system as the SMA-1000 series hardware-based appliances.
