Recently I was lucky enough to attend a NSX livefire course hosted at the VMware EMEA HQ in Staines, It’s designed to facilitate a intensive knowledge transfer of NSX related subject matter. All participants are bound by NDA, however most of the information is GA with the exception of roadmap information.

 

Day One

Day one was focused on introducing all the participants, laying a foundation for the course objectives as well as some background info on NSX. In addition the following topics were covered:

  • Lab intro
  • Dynamic routing and operations
  • Integrating NSX with phyiscal infrastructure

Day Two

We covered:

  • Security
  • Multi site implementations
  • Business continuity and disaster recovery

Day Three

We covered:

  • Operations and Troubleshooting
  • Cloud management integration

Day Four

We covered:

  • VDI
  • Best practice

Overall, it was a very packed few days but an extremely valuable and positive experience. I would strongly recommend  attending if given the chance.
