Virtualization
Definition
Emulation of a computer, operating system environment, or application on a physical system.
Term
Configuration of a VM
Definition
Share single CPU, hard drive, memory. or can be can be configured to use different CPU's or NIC's.
Term
Host
Definition
Physical Computer.
Term
Guest
Definition
VM
Term
Virtual Machine Manager or Hypervisor
Definition
Software that allows you to define and manage resources allocation and sharing among them.
Term
Advantages of Virtualization
Definition
Efficient of resources
Cost and Energy Savings
Fault and threat Isolation
Simple backups, recovery, and replication
Term
Disadvantages of Virtualization
Definition
Compromised Performance
Increased complexity
Increased Licensing costs
Single Point of Failure
Term
Most potential disadvantage
Definition
Mitigated through thoughtful network design and virtualization control.
Term
VM's
Definition
Exist as files on the hard disk of the physical computer, These files contain the operating system, applications, data, and configuration
Term
Vitrtualization programs
Definition
Hyper-V
KVM
VirtualBox
Term
Required to connect to a network a virtual machine requires
Definition
Virtual Adapter
vNic
Term
Virtual switch
Definition
Logically defined device that operates at the data link layer
Term
Virtual Switches reside in the _____of the physical computers that act as their hosts.
Definition
RAM
Term
Virtual Switches configuration reside in______
Definition
separate file on the hosts hard disk.
Term
What controls the Virtual switches?
Definition
Hypervisor
Term
Most frequently used network connection types
Definition
Bridged
NAT
Host only
Term
Bridged Mode
Definition
vNIC accesses a physical network using the host machine's NIC and obtains it own IP address, default gateway, and netmask from a DHCP server on the physical LAN.
Term
In Bridged Mode a VM appears to other nodes as just another____on the network.
Definition
client or server.
Term
Bridged Mode is best used for
Definition
specific address
mail servers
web servers
Term
NAT networking mode
Definition
VM relies on on the host machine to act as a NAT device.
Term
NAT networking mode is appropriate for clients that_________ to be addressed directly and at a specific address by other sides.
Definition
do not need
Term
Host-Only networking mode
Definition
VM's on one host can exchange data with each other and with their host, but they cannot communicate with any nodes beyond the host to create an isolated, all virtual network.
Term
Popular uses for virtual appliances
Definition
Firewall and other security measures
network management
email solutions
remote access
Term
VLAN
Definition
Subnets logically defined on a physical switch that allow network administrators to separate network traffic for better performance, customized address management, and security.
Term
To add VM's to a VLAN defined on a physical network, you modify a ___
Definition
virtual switch configuration.
Term
VM's are ______added to preexisting VLAN on the physical switch that manages that VLAN.
Definition
Not
Term
Creating a VPN
Definition
You can construct a WAN from existing public transmission systems. This offers connectivity only to an organization's users, while keeping the data secure and isolated from other (public) traffic. To accomplish this. This may be software or hardware based. Depend on secure protocols and transmission methods to keep data private.
Term
Cloud Computing
Definition
Flexible provision of data storage
applications or services to multiple clients over a network

Consolidates resources
Elastic
metered, measured
Available on demand
Term
NaaS
Definition
Services that go beyond networking
Monitoring
Storage
Application
Virtual desktops
Term
L2TP
Definition
Technology developed by Cisco
Used by many different vendors
can connect a VPN with a mix of equipment
Juniper router or a Cisco router
Can connect two routers, a router and a remote access server, or a client and a remote access server.
Term
Two major types of protocols used with VPN's
Definition
PPTP
L2TP
Term
A VPN tunneling protocol operates______ at the and encapsulates_______ , no matter what network layer protocol is used.
Definition
data link layer
network layer packets
Term
Site-to-Site
Definition
Tunnels connect multiple sites on a WAN, Clients and servers do not have to run special VPN software
Term
Client-to-site
Definition
Clients, servers, and other hosts establish tunnels with a private network using RAS, Must run on special VPN software to create the tunnel for and encrypt and encapsulate data.
