VMware NSX: Install, Configure, Manage plus Troubleshooting and Operations Fast Track [V6.4] training covers the installation, configuration and management issues of the VMware NSX product with its extensive and intensive content.

This tutorial examines VMware NSX, which is part of VMware's software-defined data center solution. In this tutorial, participants will see how to use the logical switching feature with VMware NSX and how it will be implemented in existing environments.

In addition, in this training, logical routing topics will be covered and dynamic routing between different environments will be covered. And participants will examine the optimization of gateway services, firewall configuration, and security services for VMware NSX environments.

Participants can also take the title of VMware Certified Professional 6 - Network Virtualization exam (VCP6.5-NV), which they can take at the end of the training.

Prerequisites
  • To have knowledge about Switching and Routing.
  • TCP / IP services information.
  • Attending VMware vSphere 6.x: Install, Configure, Manage training or having equal level of knowledge.
  • Firewall and Firewall command sets experience
