Prerequisites to Configure Endpoint Protection

Before you configure endpoint protection for guest VMs, ensure that the prerequisites are met.

Prerequisites

• Ensure all hosts are managed by NSX Manager(s).

• Prepare and configure NSX cluster as transport nodes by applying transport node profiles. After the cluster is prepared for NSX, guest introspection components are installed. See NSX Installation Guide.

• Partner console is installed and configured to register services with NSX.

• Ensure that the guest VMs run VM Hardware Configuration file version 9 or higher.
