Task 12

An issue with the Tampa web servers has been reported. You would like to replicate and redirect the web traffic to a network monitoring tool outside Of the NSX-T environment to further analyze the traffic.

You are asked to configure traffic replication to the monitoring software for your Tampa web overlay segments with bi-directional traffic using this detail:

Complete the requested configuration.

Notes: Passwords are contained in the user_readme.txt. This task is not dependent on other tasks. This task should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

To configure traffic replication to the monitoring software for your Tampa web overlay segments with bi-directional traffic, you need to follow these steps:

Log in to the NSX Manager UI with admin credentials. The default URL is https://<nsx-manager-ip-address>.

Navigate to Networking > Segments and select the Tampa web overlay segment that you want to replicate the traffic from. For example, select Web-01 segment that you created in Task 2.

Click Port Mirroring > Set > Add Session and enter a name and an optional description for the port mirroring session. For example, enter Tampa-Web-Monitoring.

In the Direction section, select Bi-directional as the direction from the drop-down menu. This will replicate both ingress and egress traffic from the source to the destination.

In the Source section, click Set and select the VMs or logical ports that you want to use as the source of the traffic. For example, select Web-VM-01 and Web-VM-02 as the source VMs. Click Apply.

In the Destination section, click Set and select Remote L3 SPAN as the destination type from the drop-down menu. This will allow you to replicate the traffic to a remote destination outside of the NSX-T environment.

Enter the IP address of the destination device where you have installed the network monitoring software, such as 10.10.10.200.

Select an existing service profile from the drop-down menu or create a new one by clicking New Service Profile. A service profile defines the encapsulation type and other parameters for the replicated traffic.

Optionally, you can configure advanced settings such as TCP/IP stack, snap length, etc., for the port mirroring session.

Click Save and then Close to create the port mirroring session.

You have successfully configured traffic replication to the monitoring software for your Tampa web overlay segments with bi-directional traffic using NSX-T Manager UI.

Okay, let me take a closer look at this. I want to make sure I understand the bi-directional traffic requirement and how to properly configure the replication to the external monitoring tool. I'll need to reference the user_readme.txt for any necessary passwords.
