Chapter 4 Installing the Cisco CSR 1000V in VMware ESXi Environments
Increasing Performance on VMWare ESXi Configurations
The VM is now configured for the Cisco CSR 1000V and is ready to boot. The Cisco CSR 1000V is
booted when the VM is powered on. See the “Booting the Cisco CSR 1000V and Accessing the Console”
section on page 8-1.
Note To access and configure the Cisco CSR 1000V from the serial port on the ESXi host instead of the VM
console, provision the VM to use this setting before powering on the VM and booting the router. For
more information, see the “Booting the Cisco CSR 1000V and Accessing the Console” section on
page 8-1.
