VMware NSX: Install, Configure, Manage [V6.4] Training

VMware NSX: Install, Configure, manage [V6.4] Training is aimed at professionals to teach them how to utilize logical redirecting in VMware NSX to virtualize the environment switch. It provides comprehensive knowledge of logical routing to enable you to route between various digital environments dynamically. This technical course teaches you to use firewall configurations, gateway services, and security services to optimize and protect your VMware NSX environment. You will learn the coherent methods to configure and launch VMware NSX elements for control and management.

It also helps you configure NSX Edge firewall rules to stop network traffic and use all critical features of the NSX Edge services gateway. VMware NSX: Install, Configure, Manage [V6.4] Training also demonstrates fundamental VMware NSX layer 2 networking and guides you to configure and launch VMware NSX allocated router appliances to build east-west connectivity. This course is relatively detailed, and experienced network administrators can utilize it to build credibility.
