You can easily download and deploy the vNIOS PayGo model for Azure virtual appliances directly from the Azure Marketplace. The vNIOS PayGo virtual appliance is pre-configured for Microsoft Azure, so you only need to follow a few simple steps to complete the deployment.

<span style="color: #172b4d">Before deploying the appliances, ensure that your setup meets the requirements listed in </span>the *[Prerequisites](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/vniosazure/pages/37814511)* section<span style="color: #172b4d">. To deploy a vNIOS for Azure virtual appliance directly from Azure Marketplace, complete the following steps:</span>

1. To deploy an instance directly from the Azure Marketplace portal:
  1. Sign in to the Azure Marketplace portal:  
[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/infoblox.infoblox_paygo_nios](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/infoblox.infoblox_paygo_nios)  
The page defaults to the latest version of NIOS.
  2. Click **Get it Now**, and then on the *Confirm your details to continue* page, click **Get it Now**.  
An overview of the selected product is displayed.
  3. In the **Subscription** drop-down list, choose your subscription and click **Create** to begin with the instance creation.  
This page allows you to deploy the instance with a different version of NIOS.
2. To deploy an instance from the Microsoft Azure portal:
  1. <span style="color: #172b4d">Sign in to your Microsoft Azure account.</span>
  2. <span style="color: #172b4d">In the Microsoft Azure portal, enter "infoblox" as the search filter, and then select an Azure PayGo virtual appliances from the </span><span style="color: #172b4d">**Marketplace**</span><span style="color: #172b4d"> section:</span>

3. Click **Create**, and then complete the steps described in the following topics to deploy vNIOS for Azure:
  - *[Configuring Basic Settings](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/vniosazure/pages/880967685)*
  - *[Configuring VM Settings](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/vniosazure/pages/879853601)*
  - *[Validating and Accepting Configuration](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/vniosazure/pages/880476175)*
4. To deploy vNIOS instances with high availability configuration, perform the steps described in [Configuring the vNIOS Instance with High Availability](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/vniosazure/pages/847578419).  
  
The following table lists the models of vNIOS PayGo for Azure appliances that support the cloud platform feature. Ensure that the selected model meets the minimum requirements of 4 CPU cores and 32 GB memory.

**vCPU Cores** | **Memory **  
**Allocation**  
**(GB)** | **Size of Virtual Machine** | **Supported as Grid Master and Grid Master Candidate?** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| IB-V926 | 500 | 4 | 32 | Standard_E4s_v3 | Yes |
| IB-V1516 | 500 | 8 | 64 | Standard_E8s_v3 | Yes |
| IB-V1526 | 500 | 16 | 128 | Standard_E16s_v3 | Yes |
| IB-V2326 | 500 | 20 | 160 | Standard_E20s_v3 | Yes |
| IB-V4126 | 500 | 32 | 256 | Standard_E32s_v3 | Yes |

For example, when you select a disk size of 500 GB, with 4 vCPU cores and a memory allocation of 32 GB, the appliance best suited for deployment on a Standard_E4s_v3 virtual machine will be the IB-V926. This appliance is also supported as both a Grid Master and a Grid Master Candidate.
