+# OT network sensor VM (Microsoft Hyper-V) Gen 1
+
+This article describes an OT sensor deployment on a virtual appliance using Microsoft Hyper-V.
+
+| Appliance characteristic |Details |
+|---------|---------|
+|**Hardware profile** |  As required for your organization. For more information, see [Which appliances do I need?](../ot-appliance-sizing.md) |
+|**Performance** |  As required for your organization. For more information, see [Which appliances do I need?](../ot-appliance-sizing.md) |
+|**Physical specifications** | Virtual Machine |
+|**Status** | Supported |
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> We recommend using the 2nd Generation configuration, which offers better performance and increased security, for configuration see [Microsoft Hyper-V Gen 2](virtual-sensor-hyper-v.md).
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Versions 22.2.x of the sensor are incompatible with Hyper-V, and are no longer supported. We recommend using the latest version.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+The on-premises management console supports both VMware and Hyper-V deployment options. Before you begin the installation, make sure you have the following items:
+
+- Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor (Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise) installed and operational. For more information, see [Introduction to Hyper-V on Windows 10](/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/about).
+
+- Available hardware resources for the virtual machine. For more information, see [OT monitoring with virtual appliances](../ot-virtual-appliances.md).
+
+- The OT sensor software [downloaded from Defender for IoT in the Azure portal](../ot-deploy/install-software-ot-sensor.md#download-software-files-from-the-azure-portal).
+
+Make sure the hypervisor is running.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> There is no need to pre-install an operating system on the VM, the sensor installation includes the operating system image.
+
+## Create the virtual machine
+
+This procedure describes how to create a virtual machine by using Hyper-V.
+
+**To create the virtual machine using Hyper-V**:
+
+1. Create a virtual disk in Hyper-V Manager (Fixed size, as required by the hardware profile).
+
+1. Select **format = VHDX**.
+
+1. Enter the name and location for the VHD.
+
+1. Enter the required size [according to your organization's needs](../ot-appliance-sizing.md) (select Fixed Size disk type).
+
+1. Review the summary, and select **Finish**.
+
+1. On the **Actions** menu, create a new virtual machine.
+
+1. Enter a name for the virtual machine.
+
+1. Select **Generation** and set it to **Generation 1**, and then select **Next**.
+
+1. Specify the memory allocation [according to your organization's needs](../ot-appliance-sizing.md), in standard RAM denomination (for example, 8192, 16384, 32768). Don't enable **Dynamic Memory**.
+
+1. Configure the network adaptor according to your server network topology. Under the "Hardware Acceleration" blade, disable "Virtual Machine Queue" for the monitoring (SPAN) network interface.
+
+1. Connect the VHDX, created previously, to the virtual machine.
+
+1. Review the summary, and select **Finish**.
+
+1. Right-click on the new virtual machine, and select **Settings**.
+
+1. Select **Add Hardware**, and add a new network adapter.
+
+1. Select the virtual switch that connects to the sensor management network.
+
+1. Allocate CPU resources [according to your organization's needs](../ot-appliance-sizing.md).
+
+1. Select **BIOS**, in **Startup order** move **IDE** to the top of the list, select **Apply** and then select **OK**.
+
+1. Connect the management console's ISO image to a virtual DVD drive.
+
+1. Start the virtual machine.
+
+1. On the **Actions** menu, select **Connect** to continue the software installation.
+
+## Software installation
+
+1. To start installing the OT sensor software, open the virtual machine console.
+
+    The VM starts from the ISO image, and the language selection screen will appear.
+
+1. Continue with the [generic procedure for installing sensor software](../how-to-install-software.md).
+
+## Next steps
+
+Continue understanding system requirements for physical or virtual appliances. For more information, see [Which appliances do I need?](../ot-appliance-sizing.md) and [OT monitoring with virtual appliances](../ot-virtual-appliances.md).
+
+Then, use any of the following procedures to continue:
+
+- [Download software for an OT sensor](../ot-deploy/install-software-ot-sensor.md#download-software-files-from-the-azure-portal)
+- [Download software files for an on-premises management console](../legacy-central-management/install-software-on-premises-management-console.md#download-software-files-from-the-azure-portal)
