Hello and welcome to this lecture in this lecture we will continue and basically install the genius
3 VM and for this we have to first install virtualization software.
And if you navigate onto the genius 3 Web site into the documentation there is a topic here.
Genius 3 set up wizard with the genius 3 VM for the first question is which virtualization software
to choose either a virtual box or view more.
And this question is basically for Windows C because for macros you have the Aveo where fusion option
anyway so the developer option is the better option because it's faster and it supports nested virtualization.
And as you can see here on the unity website the VM is the VM running inside a VM is basically what
nested virtualization is and we need this because we will install VMware Workstation and inside this
virtualization software we run another VM so we need nested virtualization.
Now second question is OK we will run VM workstation but should we run the free player version or should
we run the pro version the paid one.
And here is one page one web page that could help us decide very fast one.
One option that's very important for me when I had to decide between workstation pro and the workstation
player is basically this run multiple victims at one time the workstation pro has an yes option meaning
yes I can run multiple victims powered on at the same time while the player option has the No option
here.
Meaning that you can run only one VM at any point in time.
So I have chosen to to install VMware Workstation pro because I will have as you as you can see in my
current courses and my upcoming ones I'm going to run multiple victims for example in a remote access
VPN.
I will run a Windows APC probably and the any connect software running on on that specific P.C. on the
other side on the HQ the headquarter I will have most probably Windows server that's running let's say
ATP service and also the FTB.
So as you can see in a basic example like this one I have to have two VM running at the same time.
So all in all.
Long story short I or I'm going to install VM or workstation Pro.
Now let's see how to do that.
So if you navigate to the rumor that come on the left side you have to click on downloads and workstation
pro
here on the right you see the download free trial and if you're running Windows obviously you click
on the left option windows.
Now the the the download now has to be click and as you can see the viewer workstation pro installer
gets gets installed.
Now meanwhile let's go also to the genius 3 website and let's go to download.
We will have to have the VM the genius G VM also downloaded.
So let's click the download VM for genius 3.
We are going to install VM workstation so obviously I'm choosing this option when I hit the download
and the download should start pretty fast.
While the genius free VM is being downloaded let's go ahead and install VMware Workstation pro so execute
the file here.
Yes minimize everything.
We don't need this at this moment and we will continue with the with the installation.
Let's see.
I think genius 3 VM It's over.
Yeah.
Downloaded over
so preparing VM where workstation for installation now Windows installer I will hit next basic installation
nothing fancy.
I accept the terms in the license agreement and click Next I will not change the path to the VM workstation
folder.
I click next.
I don't want to check for product updates on startup and also I don't want to join the vehement more
customer experience improvement program click next.
Yes I want shortcuts and hit in
OK.
So the installation is complete.
I have to click finish.
Let's start the VM workstation and see how it looks.
So yes it looks good.
Now let me just delete some of my previous
VM that I had.
Good.
So now I have to take the genius three VM that that that I have downloaded and just put it inside.
So let's go to file and then open and let's search in the downloads folder.
And here is the genius 3 VM open
so named for the new virtual machine Unix three VM excess course
and import.
Now the genius 3 VM is being imported into Vilma workstation Pro.
It shouldn't take too much and we will just wrap up the section immediately.
So here you go.
The genius 3 VM has been imported now I will not change anything here.
I will go to edit preferences and let's see.
No basically no not here.
Sorry about that.
Will just run Janus 3 VM.
I have to have some option.
Imagine that to link.
Basically then genius 3 VM with the genius 3 gooey.
So it's not here.
It has to be in the genius degree and let's see now.
So there is an option to enable running the genius 3 VM.
Let's wait.
First of all so that my P.C. appears in the server summary.
Remember we have talked about this in a previous lecture.
So connecting to server 1 2 7 0 0 1 it's me so let's see if the ROTC.
OK so this is basically connected.
Let's go into Edit Preferences.
Now if it go yes this is the option.
If you go into the genius 3 VM Yes you have to enable the genius 3 VM so this is my VM I will refresh
it.
What virtualization engine you're running VM workstation.
This is this is your option now.
This is something that I cannot recommend you which is the best way in terms of RAM and virtual speed.
You should increase these values as much as your P.C. supports.
So depending on your P.C. how powerful how new it is to say so you should increase these values as much
as possible for this moment.
I will just put like 4 gigs on on my P.C. I kid I hit apply then after it finishes I will just hit.
OK so let's wait for that perfect.
So now we can see both Genesis ve Ms.
Genius to VM and my P.S. in green.
This is fantastic.
It will now allow me to add.
Remember I have talked about this side of the software.
Very important.
It will allow me to add what is very much needed.
So let's say Cisco FTD FMC HCV the IRS fee so the routers areas v layer to the switch.
So yeah thanks for.
Thanks for watching and see you in the next lecture.
