You have successfully run the GET call in the API using Postman and saved the output to your desktop to a text file called API.txt.

To enable logging for the production NSX-T environment, you need to follow these steps:

Verify via putty with SSH that the administrator can connect to all NSX-Transport Nodes. You can use the credentials identified in Putty (admin) to log in to each transport node. For example, you can use the following command to connect to the sfo01w01en01 edge transport node: ssh admin@sfo01w01en01. You should see a welcome message and a prompt to enter commands.

Verify that there is no current active logging enabled by reviewing that directory is empty -/var/log/syslog-. You can use the ls command to list the files in the /var/log/syslog directory. For example, you can use the following command to check the sfo01w01en01 edge transport node: ls /var/log/syslog. You should see an empty output if there is no active logging enabled.

Enable NSX Manager Cluster logging. You can use the search_web('NSX Manager Cluster logging configuration') tool to find some information on how to configure remote logging for NSX Manager Cluster. One of the results is NSX-T Syslog Configuration Revisited - vDives, which provides the following steps:

Navigate to System > Fabric > Profiles > Node Profiles then select All NSX Nodes then under Syslog Servers click +ADD

Enter the IP or FQDN of the syslog server, the Port and Protocol and the desired Log Level then click ADD

Select multiple configuration choices that could be appropriate success criteri

a. You can use the search_web('NSX-T logging success criteria') tool to find some information on how to verify and troubleshoot logging for NSX-T. Some of the possible success criteria are:

The syslog server receives log messages from all NSX nodes

The log messages contain relevant information such as timestamp, hostname, facility, severity, message ID, and message content

The log messages are formatted and filtered according to the configured settings

The log messages are encrypted and authenticated if using secure protocols such as TLS or LI-TLS

Enable NSX Edge Node logging. You can use the search_web('NSX Edge Node logging configuration') tool to find some information on how to configure remote logging for NSX Edge Node. One of the results is Configure Remote Logging - VMware Docs, which provides the following steps:

Run the following command to configure a log server and the types of messages to send to the log server. Multiple facilities or message IDs can be specified as a comma delimited list, without spaces.

set logging-server <hostname-or-ip-address [:port]> proto level <level> [facility <facility>] [messageid <messageid>] [serverca <filename>] [clientca <filename>] [certificate <filename>] [key <filename>] [structured-data <structured-data>]

Validate logs are generated on each selected appliance by reviewing the '/var/log/syslog''. You can use the cat or tail commands to view the contents of the /var/log/syslog file on each appliance. For example, you can use the following command to view the last 10 lines of the sfo01w01en01 edge transport node: tail -n 10 /var/log/syslog. You should see log messages similar to this:

2023-04-06T12:34:56+00:00 sfo01w01en01 user.info nsx-edge[1234]: 2023-04-06T12:34:56Z nsx-edge[1234]: INFO: [nsx@6876 comp='nsx-edge' subcomp='nsx-edge' level='INFO' security='False'] Message from nsx-edge

You have successfully enabled logging for the production NSX-T environment.

To review CPU sensitivity and threshold values, 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 System > Settings > System Settings > CPU and Memory Thresholds.

You will see the current values for CPU and memory thresholds for NSX Manager, NSX Controller, and NSX Edge. These values determine the percentage of CPU and memory usage that will trigger an alarm on the NSX Manager UI.

You can modify the default threshold values by clicking Edit and entering new values in the text boxes. For example, you can increase the CPU threshold for NSX Manager from 80% to 90% to reduce the number of alarms for high CPU usage. Click Save to apply the changes.

You can also view the historical data for CPU and memory usage for each component by clicking View Usage History.You can select a time range and a granularity level to see the usage trends and patterns over time

To configure the NSX backups for the environment, you need to follow these steps:

Verify that an SFTP server is available on the network and obtain SFTP fingerprint. You can use the search_web('SFTP server availability') tool to find some information on how to set up and check an SFTP server. You can also use the ssh-keyscan command to get the fingerprint of the SFTP server. For example, ssh-keyscan -t ecdsa sftp_server will return the ECDSA key of the sftp_server. You can compare this key with the one displayed on the NSX Manager UI when you configure the backup settings.

Configure NSX Backups via NSX Appliance Backup. Log in to the NSX Manager UI with admin credentials. The default URL is https://<nsx-manager-ip-address>. Select System > Lifecycle Management > Backup & Restore. Click Edit under the SFTP Server label to configure your SFTP server. Enter the FQDN or IP address of the backup file server, such as 10.10.10.100. The protocol text box is already filled in. SFTP is the only supported protocol. Change the default port if necessary. The default TCP port is 22. In the Directory Path text box, enter the absolute directory path where the backups will be stored, such as /dat

a. The directory must already exist and cannot be the root directory (/). Avoid using path drive letters or spaces in directory names; they are not supported. In the Passphrase text box, enter a passphrase that will be used to encrypt and decrypt the backup files, such as VMware1!. Click Save to create the backup configuration.

Configure Scheduling Criteria. On the Backup & Restore page, click Edit under the Schedule label to configure your backup schedule. Select Enabled from the drop-down menu to enable scheduled backups. Select Daily from the Frequency drop-down menu to run backups once every 24 hours. Select a time from the Time drop-down menu to specify when the backup will start, such as 12:00 AM. Select Enabled from the Additional Backup Trigger drop-down menu to run backups when there are changes published to the NSX environment. Click Save to create the backup schedule.

Verify that a backup file has been created on the SFTP server. On the Backup & Restore page, click Start Backup to run a manual backup and verify that it completes successfully. You should see a message saying ''Backup completed successfully''. You can also check the status and details of your backups on this page, such as backup size, duration, and timestamp. Alternatively, you can log in to your SFTP server and check if there is a backup file in your specified directory path, such as /data.

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.
