Veeam Backup & Replication

Veeam Backup & Replication supports two latest versions of Veeam Plug-Ins. For example, Veeam Backup & Replication 12.3 supports Veeam Plug-In 12.3 and 12.2.

Keep in mind that if you use an earlier Veeam Plug-In build than the one that is included in the installation ISO file of your Veeam Backup & Replication version, it may not have all the features and bug fixes introduced in your Veeam Backup & Replication version. To learn more about the Veeam Plug-In builds included in Veeam Backup & Replication installation ISO files, see this Veeam KB article.

Network

Veeam Plug-In should be able to establish a direct IP connection to the Veeam Backup & Replication server. Thus, Veeam Plug-In cannot work with the Veeam Backup & Replication server that is located behind the NAT gateway.
