Description
****Over 1,700 happy students on Udemy in only a few months! Thank you!****
Most people know that NSX-T has a built-in Load Balancer, but very few people have actually deployed it!
In this course, we'll briefly go over some core load balancing concepts, and dive right into implementing the NSX-T Load Balancer. Specifically, we'll cover:
The difference between the Native NSX LB and the new Avi Networks LB (NSX ALB)
Note: This course covers 90% Native NSX LB, but there is brief coverage of the Avi LB/NSX ALB in this course
Core LB Concepts (pools, virtual servers/VIPs, persistence, health monitors)
NSX-T LB Concepts (components, where the load balancer runs, and more)
How to implement NSX-T Load Balancing from Scratch
NOTE: You must have NSX-T stood up already if you want to follow along. I do show you my lab details in this lesson (including my full NSX-T configuration), but I cover the deployment of NSX-T in my NSX-T Fundamentals Part ONE course)
How to setup passive and active health monitors
The difference between L4 and L7 Virtual Servers
How NSX-T ensures High Availability of LB Services
How to rewrite HTTP requests based on the URL and send them to a different pool or URL

Instructor
Hi! I am a certified VMware, and Linux instructor, and have been teaching for 15+ years. I hold two active Cisco CCIE certifications, and have experience working for many vendors, including VMware. I believe training should be FUN!
I have delivered live training, video-based courses, and been “in the trenches” as a member of professional services teams too. I teach because I know how hard some concepts can be to grasp, so I do my best to save my students the headache.
Please share your honest feedback on any of my courses - I read every review, and genuinely take that feedback into account when making new courses.
