Lightspeed Appliance QLS and VSX

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

I am a little bit confused about the statement that Lightspeed applications do not support VSX.

Currently, a VSX license for 5 virtual systems is included in the base license.

Therefore my question:

1) Can we use VSX on a QLS appliance using only the 8 x 10Gbps ports (without using the NVIDIA interfaces)?
2) When will be VSX regularly supported? With R81.20?
3) Why are 5 VSX licenses included in the base license if VSX is not supported?

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

Is there a statement from Check Point here?

[Chris_Atkinson]

1) Not supported at this time.
2) Correct - starting R81.20, only when a VS is connected to physical interfaces on the same SmartNIC. 
3) As above the support is planned for the near term.

As @_Val_ mentioned in another thread please stay tuned for the webinars and documentation updates.

Good day @Chris_Atkinson,

Do you know if this is still the case that, it is not supported using QLS and VSX?
