Trend Micro™ InterScan™ Web Security Virtual Appliance 6.5 Installation Guide
F-2
Introduction
Starting with IWSVA 5.1 SP1, Microsoft Hyper-V based virtual platforms are
supported. This document provides a step-by-step installation guide to install IWSVA
6.5 on Hyper-V based virtual machines.
The actual installation of Hyper-V is not covered in this document. Refer to Microsoft’s
product documentation to install this product.
The procedure outlined in this document describes how to install IWSVA 6.5 onto a
Windows 2008 Server R2 Hyper-V server. You must have the proper Microsoft
Windows 2008 Server R2 with Hyper-V support installed before proceeding.
IWSVA Support for Hyper-V
IWSVA 6.5 will only support Hyper-V 2.0 with Windows Server 2008 R2 or later. The
IWSVA installation for Hyper-V platforms only supports forward proxy mode, WCCP
mode, ICAP mode, and reverse mode. Transparent bridge mode is not supported.
Hyper-V Virtualization Modes
Hyper-V provides two virtualization modes that support IWSVA:
1. Full-virtualization
2. Para-virtualization
Due to Hyper-V’s performance limitations in full-virtualization mode, it is
recommended to install IWSVA in para-virtualization mode. This allows IWSVA to
achieve much higher throughput performance and supports enterprise networking
environments. IWSVA 6.5 provides the necessary integrated Hyper-V drivers (the last
version of integration services is v3.1) to support the installation under Hyper-V v2 as a
para-virtualization virtual machine.
