Onboard a ZTNA Connector Using Hyper-V

Onboard a ZTNA Connector using Microsoft Hyper-V.
To onboard a ZTNA Connector using a Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machine (VM), complete the following steps.
Before you start, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
  • Download the ZTNA Connector Hyper-V image from the Customer Support Portal (CSP) under
    Updates
    Software Updates
    Prisma Access
    ZTNA Connector for Hyper-V
    .
  • Make sure that you have a Hyper-V VM that meets the minimum hosting environments for ZTNA Connector.
  1. Select
    Settings
    ZTNA Connector
    Connectors
    , and find the connector you created for the Hyper-V VM,
    Copy Token
    in the
    Status
    area, and copy the
    Key
    and
    Secret
    values.
    If you're using Strata Cloud Manager, go to
    Workflows
    ZTNA Connector
    Connectors
    .
  2. Upload the
    vhd
    image you downloaded from the CSP to the Hyper-V VM.
    Make sure that the location you choose is reachable from the Hyper-V VM.
    One (vhd) file is required for each Hyper-V VM.
  3. Go to Hyper-V Manager and create a new virtual machine by selecting
    Actions
    New
    Virtual Machine
    .
    This workflow shows the steps you perform to deploy Hyper-V VMs in a Microsoft server. The Hyper-V UI might look different in your environment.
  4. Go to the
    Next
    screen and enter a unique name for the VM and go to the
    Next
    page.
  5. (
    Optional
    ) To change the location of the VM, select
    Store the virtual machine in a different location
    and select the location.
  6. Select
    Generation 1
    as the VM generation and go to the
    Next
    page.
    This is the generation that the ZTNA Connector vhd file supports.
  7. Assign memory to the VM.
    Allocate a minimum memory of
    8192
    MB (8 GB), which meets the minimum requirements for a Hyper-V VM and go to the
    Next
    page.
  8. Configure networking for your VM; then, go to the
    Next
    page.
    The networking you use depends on your configuration. This example uses a
    NAT Switch
    for the networking.
  9. Connect the virtual hard disk.
    1. Select
      Use an existing virtual hard disk
      and
      Browse
      for the vhd file you downloaded
    2. Select the vhd file you downloaded the
      Open
      it; then, go to the
      Next
      page.
  10. Finish
    the new VM wizard.
    Hyper-V creates the VM.
  11. Make sure that your VM has at least four processors by going to the
    Processor
    area and making sure that you select at least
    4
    virtual processors.
  12. Start
    the VM.
  13. Connect
    to the serial console.
  14. Wait for the interactive CLI install program initializes, then Configure the ION model, key, and secret.
