   - Select the model of Infoblox Appliance you want to deploy (e.g. TE-815 or TE-825, etc). This is how VMware knows how much RAM and CPU to set on the VM.
   - You now have an option to pre-populate configuration but ignore this and just click 'Import'.
-  - The machine will deploy and boot. Make sure you update the VM's four network interfaces to be connected to the appropriate VLAN in the hypervisor. Also remember that LAN1 (the interface you access by default) is the second network interface. The first interface is the management interface but that is not used by default. Also remember that, **IN A LAB**, you get away with reducing the RAM from 16GB to 4Gb (or even 2GB) and from 4CPU to 2CPU (or even 1CPU). (Order of network interfaces is MGMT, LAN1, HA, LAN2)

(Order of network interfaces is MGMT, LAN1, HA, LAN2). **HOWEVER**, I've seen cases where you need 8GB because giving the VM less means that it won't connect to the Infoblox Portal.
   - Log into the VM with the username ''admin'' and the password ''infoblox''.
   - Run the ''set temp_license'' command so that we can set temporary 60 day licences. This bit can be skipped if you have actual licences but it is useful in a lab environment.
