Introducing Kubernetes Academy Brought to You by VMware!
We’re excited to introduce Kubernetes Academy Brought to You by VMware—a free, product-agnostic Kubernetes and cloud native technology education platform. Kubernetes Academy provides an accessible learning path to advance your skill set, regardless of where you are on your Kubernetes journey.
No longer do you need to stress about exams expiring has now gone. Anyone with a previous expired VCP 4 and 5 certifications should check now to see if they have gone live again as VMware now recognizes those formerly expired exams. So You can download the badges for those exams from the MyVMware portal. #VMware #VCP #VCAP #Certification
The VCP certification backtrack means formerly expired VCP 4 and 5 certifications have become active again. Discover what this change means for your certification and decide whether you intend to recertify.

Learn NSX – VMware NSX for vSphere -via Stephen Hackers Blog
These are notes made during my study of VMware NSX for vSphere. Apologises if any of the detail is incorrect. Hopefully posts under “Learn NSX” help others to start learning about VMware NSX for vSphere.
NSX Manager ( Open console of NSX Manager – try basic commands)
List
sho? (displays commands starting with “sho”)
Privileged mode
Ping
Show Clock
Show file system
Type : quit (to exit)
NSX Controller CLI Commands:
Identify which port the switch manager is using
Show controller-cluster connections
Identify control cluster majority leader
show control-cluster status
Very useful blog on trouble shooting NSX http://www.yet.org/2014/09/nsxv-troubleshooting/

vDS (Distributed Switch)
An interface on a distributed switch can connect to the rest of the network
Advanced Settings
To implement:
Limits
There can be up to x1000 logical interfaces to one distributed router
Distributed Logical Firewall
Diagram to try and display my understanding of how the firewall rules apply based on security groups
Rules only apply to the ESXi hosts which have the source or destination VM traffic

Spoof Guard
A useful feature, help prevent rouge systems connecting in to your network by pretending to be another server. An approved list of authorized servers is generated on IP, MAC. This is a separate feature from firewalls. My understanding it would increase security alongside firewall rules. See VMwares description for further information
