Overview
Keysight Vision Orchestrator (KVO) is the centralized control and automation layer for Keysight's Visibility solutions. It is designed to simplify configuration, streamline deployment, and manage Vision Packet Brokers (VPB) and visibility fabrics across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. KVO provides a unified management interface that enables IT, NetOps, and SecOps teams to define and enforce visibility policies with consistency at scale. Through automation, role-based access, and intuitive workflows, it accelerates deployment, reduces human error, and ensures visibility architectures remain aligned with evolving network and security requirements. By integrating seamlessly with Keysight Vision Packet Brokers and CloudLens, Vision Orchestrator automates the end-to-end visibility workflow from tapping traffic to distributing curated data streams to monitoring and security tools. This ensures that every tool in the stack receives the right traffic, at the right time, in the right format, maximizing tool efficiency and delivering actionable insights in real time.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
WHAT IS NEW IN KVO 3.1.1
Access Control in Scheduled Backups Scheduled configuration backups can now include Access Control settings. Users choose whether Access Control data is written to the scheduled backup files.
Import Users Configuration backups can now include the complete Keycloak database, enabling backup and restore of access-control settings: local users, roles, password policies, authentication configuration, and user federation settings including LDAP, TACACS and RADIUS providers.
KVO SSH Access and UI License Access Firewall and licensing commands now require the admin realm role for write operations. Read operations remain available to all users. Licensing operations in the KVO UI are restricted by role, so users without the admin role cannot activate or deactivate licenses.
LDAP and Import-Export Restore Enhancements LDAP Group Mapper configuration is now preserved during configuration import, so LDAP groups and their users are mapped with the correct roles and permissions. All local user passwords are reset to the default password after import. The Super Admin password is unchanged.
Monitoring Policies Diagram The View Stats iframe for assets now shows a 15-minute time range. It loads historical data when opened and refreshes every minute with real-time updates. Monitoring Policy View Stats is unchanged.
NVOS Backward Compatibility KVO now supports backward compatibility with the N-2 NVOS versions: 6.12.1, 6.12.0 and 6.11.1.
RBAC A Default User Role setting has been added under Settings. Administrators can assign, remove and reset roles under the default-roles-keysight role, which determines initial KVO user permissions.
Visibility Fabric Devices Controlled devices from Inventory are now shown under Cluster / Visibility Fabric / Assets / Devices, filtered by the selected cluster.
Vision 400XT Added KVO support for Vision 400XT in monitored mode.
Note: Upgrade support for iBypass 100G devices has been removed from KVO. Use the supported standalone upgrade method, or contact Support.
This release is in compliance with the Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF).
