Hyper-V Network Virtualization Cookbook

Hyper-V Network Virtualization Cookbook

<b>Over 20 recipes to ease the creation of new virtual machines in the networking layer using Hyper-V Network Virtualization</b><h2>About This Book</h2><ul><li>Create, configure, and administer System Center 2012 R2</font> virtual networks with Hyper-V</li><li>Design practical solutions to optimize your network solutions</li><li>Learn how to control who can access a VM</font> on a specific port to enhance the security of your virtual machine</li></ul><h2>Who This Book Is For</h2><p>If you are a virtualization</font></font> architect, engineer, or administrator who wants to leverage Hyper-V to create virtual networks (virtual data centers), this is the book for you.</p><p>Prior knowledge of Hyper-V or a similar solution and a good understanding of the end goals of creating a virtual network is required.</p><h2>What You Will Learn</h2><ul> <br /><li>Install a highly available Virtual Machine Manager (VMM)</li> <br /><li>Configure VMM for Hyper-V Network Virtualization</li> <br /><li>Create a Service Template for reusable HNV gateways</li> <br /><li>Create an HNV gateway and the different options for gateways, including Network Address Translation and Direct Routing</li> <br /><li>Integrate IP Address Management (IPAM) with VMM for HNV</li> <br /><li>Implement network security in Hyper-V Network Virtualization</li> <br /></ul><h2>In Detail</h2><p>Hyper-V Network Virtualization provides the concept of a Virtual Network that is independent of the underlying physical network. Using software-defined networking, you can manage the network address space, isolation, and routing without having to make changes to the physical underlying architecture.</p><p>You will start your journey by understanding the fundamentals of Hyper-V Network Virtualization and how to configure System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager to support it. You will learn about the Windows Server Gateway role for Hyper-V Virtual Networks and the different implementation options.</p><p>Finally, you will see how the Hyper-V Extensible Switch can help protect Virtual Machines by using Hyper-V Extensible Port ACLs.</p>
