Session Monitor Virtualization Support
This section describes the software and hardware requirements for Session Monitor virtualization.
Hypervisor Support
The following hypervisors are supported:
- Oracle VM version 3.4
- VMware vSphere ESXi 5.x/6.x
- Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)
Virtual Machine Requirements
The following table lists the minimum requirements for the virtual machines.
Table 1-8 Hardware Requirements for Virtual Machines
| Component | Requirement |
| Processor | 8 vCPUs |
| Memory | 8GB RAM |
| Disk Space | 80GB |
| NIC Card | 1Gbps vNIC |
In virtualized Mediation Engines, 50,000 concurrent calls (1 SIP leg per call) have been tested successfully.
Host Machine Requirements
The physical machine that hosts the virtual machines should contain at a minimum the hardware resources that are required to host all the virtual machines, in addition to the hardware that is required for the hypervisor.
