VMware NSX Cookbook: Over 70 recipes to master the network virtualization skills to implement, validate, operate, upgrade, and automate VMware NSX for vSphere
Over 70 recipes to champion the skills of network virtualization and security operations using the VMware NSX for vSphere.
Key Features Book Description This book begins with a brief introduction to VMware's NSX for vSphere Network Virtualization solutions and how to deploy and configure NSX components and features such as Logical Switching, Logical Routing, layer 2 bridging and the Edge Services Gateway. Moving on to security, the book shows you how to enable micro-segmentation through NSX Distributed Firewall and Identity Firewall and how to do service insertion via network and guest introspection. After covering all the feature configurations for single-site deployment, the focus then shifts to multi-site setups using Cross-vCenter NSX.
Next, the book covers management, backing up and restoring, upgrading, and monitoring using built-in NSX features such as Flow Monitoring, Traceflow, Application Rule Manager, and Endpoint Monitoring. Towards the end, you will explore how to leverage VMware NSX REST API using various tools from Python to VMware vRealize Orchestrator. What you will learn Who this book is for This book aims to be useful for both new and seasoned VMware NSX for vSphere
administrators. It is intended to be used by those that have never deployed NSX and by
those that have it deployed already but are looking to leverage new or advanced
functionality. NSX-v runs on vSphere and connects to your existing network. Therefore, intermediate
networking and virtualization knowledge is assumed and is essential to understand the
correct deployment of NSX in your environment. Table of Contents
