Getting Started with SNP Manager
An SNP system consists of a SNP (Selenio™ Network Processor) box and SNP Manager running on a
separate PC. We recommend controlling no more than ten SNPs under a single SNP Manager. See
Installing SNP Manager
Installing SNP Manager
SNP Manager is a virtual machine created from an ISO file. The virtual machine ISO is tested working on
VirtualBox hypervisor. The procedure generally includes installing VirtualBox, creating the SNP Manager
VM, and configuring the virtual machine for network access.
System Requirements
The host machine for the SNP VM should meet the following requirements:
•
Minimum of 16GB RAM
•
VirtualBox hypervisor 5.1 or higher
•
Minimum of 30 GB free space on HDD
•
4 cores
When connecting to SNP, use Chrome or Firefox. Other browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Edge, or
Safari, are not supported.
With this configuration you can support up to 50 SNP devices per SNP Manager.
Creating the SNP Manager Virtual Machine
SNP Manager will be running inside a virtual machine managed by VirtualBox.
If you have VirtualBox installed, start with step #4 (below).
You need to enable the host machine CPU Virtualization Support from the BIOS in order to run the VM
properly. To install VM VirtualBox Manager, follow these steps:
1. Download VirtualBox installer from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
(https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/downloads).
You will need VirtualBox 5.1 or newer.
2. Boot or reboot the host machine, and enter BIOS configuration.
On many systems, you can enter the BIOS configuration by holding down the F2 key while rebooting.
Check the manual for your system if this is not the case.
3. In the BIOS configuration, enable virtualization settings.
4. Run Virtualbox installer and take all default options in setup wizard.
