A question came up today around throughput numbers for an NSX Edge Services Gateway and that jogged my memory back to a previous blog post where I compared features and performance metrics between vShield Edges and NSX Edges. In the original post I had left out some key metrics, specifically around firewall and load balance throughput so thought it was time The post NSX Bytes: Updated – NSX Edge Feature and Performance Matrix appeared first on VIRTUALIZATION IS LIFE! .

Two vCPU NSX controller for lab environment

When installing NSX in a environment, you will at some point need to deploy NSX controllers. By default these controllers are equiped with four vCPU’s, which is fine for a production environment. Butif you want to play around withNSX in a lab environment like I wanted to, then you might not have the hardware (in my case 1 CPU, 2 cores) to support those four vCPU’s. In this article I will describe how I managed to deploy a two vCPU NSX controller for lab environment. Before we start I need to…Read More
