Deploying the program on a virtual platform requires installing the VMware ESXi™ 6.5.0 or 6.7.0 hypervisor.
The configuration of the Kaspersky Sandbox servers depends on the volume of data to be processed by the application and the throughput of the network link.
Kaspersky Sandbox operation on AMD processors is not supported.
Hardware and software requirements of the Kaspersky Sandbox physical server
The Kaspersky Sandbox solution supports physical server configurations listed in the following table.

Example of Kaspersky Sandbox performance: Physical server configuration: CPU: 4 cores with Hyper-Threading support (8 threads), 2.1 GHz RAM: 32 GB Two hard drives in a RAID 1 array:
|
For example, if you want to double the performance of Kaspersky Sandbox (to receive objects from 500 workstations or 150 objects per hour from external systems via the API), you can combine 2 servers into a cluster.
Hardware and software requirements of Kaspersky Sandbox virtual machine
Kaspersky Sandbox supports the following virtual machine configuration:
Virtual machine settings:
You can use the following formula to calculate the entire CPU clock rate: 12 * <clock rate in MHz>.
When configuring the virtual machine, your configuration must match the description above. Only the CPU clock rate can be varied: you can configure a value of 2.2 GHz or higher. If the configuration of your virtual machine deviates from the description above, correct installation and operation of Kaspersky Sandbox is not guaranteed.
Installed on a virtual machine, Kaspersky Sandbox can process objects from up to 250 workstations or 100 objects per hour received using the API.
Hardware and software requirements of the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent application
You can install Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.7 for Windows as part of Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11.2, 11.3 for Windows, and Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.9 for Windows as part of Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11.4 for Windows on workstations running the following operating systems:
You can install Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.9 for Windows as part of Kaspersky Security for Windows Server 11 on workstations running the following operating systems:
Throughput requirements for the link between workstations that have the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent application installed and the Kaspersky Sandbox server
Minimum requirements for the link between workstations that have the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent application installed and the Kaspersky Sandbox server are listed in the following table.

Compatibility of the Kaspersky Sandbox solution version 1.1 with other applications
Kaspersky Sandbox version 1.1 is compatible with the following Kaspersky software:
For details about managing Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 see the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent Online Help.
Kaspersky Sandbox can be integrated only with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent installed as part of Endpoint Protection Platform. If necessary, you can update Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.7 or 3.9 installed as part of Endpoint Protection Platform to version 3.11.
