Cisco Nexus 1000V deployment on ESX servers
The joint venture between Cisco and VMware brought a new highly scalable product for networkers is Cisco Nexsus 1000V. Cisco Nexus 1000V is a distributed virtual switch which is fully integrated within VMware Infrastructure. The Cisco Nexus 1000V has 2 different modules, they are ; Virtual Ethernet Module (VEM):- Each hypervisor contains one VEM module and it is a software solution that effectively performs following tasks: Advance Networking Security Traffic switching between virtual machines Routing between rest of the network Virtual Supervisor Module (VSM) :- The VSM is a standalone, physical or virtual module that performs the following functions for the Cisco Nexus 1000V system: Configuration Management Monitoring Integration with VMware In the Cisco Nexus 1000V, traffic is switched between virtual machines locally at each VEM instance level
Get the benefit of email alerts based on traffic volume through NetFlow Analyzer
Many organization s are concerned about volume of traffic in their network and NetFlow Analyzer makes it simpler to keep an eye on traffic volume. You could set up email alerts if the traffic goes beyond a particular level
Allowing temporary access to sensitive IT resources
Assume the scenario below: You administer a sensitive IT resource – a database in production network containing important data. An emergency troubleshooting situation arises. A developer has to be provided time-limited, temporary access to the DBMS, say for a day

How do you deploy configuration changes to production network?
Administrators working on production networks often face the need to carry out changes to the configurations of switches, routers, firewalls and other devices. The change could be a trivial one to modify a minor setting or might be a major one like upgrading the firmware. In both the scenarios, configuration changes to a device in production network requires planning, coordination, attention, diligence and visibility

The inspiration to post this blog came from a visit to our forums and blogs where we didn
Managing Risk: Rapidly responding to security alerts from network device vendors
Assume the scenario below: The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) publishes an important security alert Releases an advisory suggesting firmware upgrage of routers The security issue on hand is quite serious, urgent and cannot be ignored Impact assessment of devices suggests firmware upgrade of more than 1500 routers to be done immediately Network administrators working on production networks involving a large number of network devices such as switches, routers, firewalls and other devices would have often faced a situation similar to the one above. Effectively managing risk is an important aspect of network security. But, manual process for reacting to security alerts is not only time-consuming, but also error-prone
