WEBVTT 1 00:00.000 --> 00:05.040 So before we enable the NSX intelligence component as part of the NSX 2 00:05.040 --> 00:06.080 application platform, 3 00:06.080 --> 00:09.040 let's take a moment here in the vSphere client just to verify that all our 4 00:09.040 --> 00:09.760 pieces and parts 5 00:09.760 --> 00:13.870 are in place. As I mentioned, I had to rebuild the network because I had a 6 00:13.870 --> 00:14.560 little power outage 7 00:14.560 --> 00:19.680 yesterday after the deployment of the NSX application platform. So when I 8 00:19.680 --> 00:20.960 rebuilt everything, 9 00:20.960 --> 00:24.960 I made a cluster for my edge nodes. I also made a cluster to support the NSX 10 00:24.960 --> 00:26.080 application platform. 11 00:26.080 --> 00:29.030 And if we click here on the VM and templates view, they're all up and running. 12 00:29.030 --> 00:29.520 We can also 13 00:29.520 --> 00:33.590 verify here by going to the hamburger menu and then going down to workload WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 13 00:29.520 --> 00:33.590 verify here by going to the hamburger menu and then going down to workload 14 00:33.590 --> 00:34.720 management and take 15 00:34.720 --> 00:39.330 a peek at it here as well. So here under supervisors, it shows running. If we 16 00:39.330 --> 00:40.320 click on that supervisor 17 00:40.320 --> 00:44.040 and go to monitor, everything looks green that looks good, including the Kuber 18 00:44.040 --> 00:44.960 netes status showing 19 00:44.960 --> 00:49.220 as ready. So from the vSphere client perspective, everything looks pretty good. 20 00:49.220 --> 00:49.840 Let's head over 21 00:49.840 --> 00:55.400 to the NSX manager. So here in the NSX manager, let's go to the system tab. And 22 00:55.400 --> 00:56.000 with the system 23 00:56.000 --> 01:00.420 tab selected over on the left, we can click right here on the NSX application WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 23 00:56.000 --> 01:00.420 tab selected over on the left, we can click right here on the NSX application 24 01:00.420 --> 01:01.040 platform, 25 01:01.040 --> 01:05.240 just to verify that it's ready to rock. So we'll click here on NSX application 26 01:05.240 --> 01:05.840 platform. 27 01:05.840 --> 01:08.650 And this is showing us that it was successfully deployed. We've already seen 28 01:08.650 --> 01:09.280 that message. Thank 29 01:09.280 --> 01:13.630 you. Thank you. And that currently is showing us stable. So that part all looks 30 01:13.630 --> 01:14.720 great. And then 31 01:14.720 --> 01:18.270 as we scroll down, we have the option of then activating the features that we 32 01:18.270 --> 01:19.120 want to use as 33 01:19.120 --> 01:23.700 part of the NSX application platform. So I did the liberty a little bit ago to 34 01:23.700 --> 01:25.040 enable the NSX 35 01:25.040 --> 01:28.140 intelligence. So for a brand new deployment, you'd have to go to this tile 36 01:28.140 --> 01:29.600 right here under features, 37 01:29.600 --> 01:33.330 click on it to enable it. It would do some pre checks. In fact, let me show you WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 37 01:29.600 --> 01:33.330 click on it to enable it. It would do some pre checks. In fact, let me show you 38 01:33.330 --> 01:34.000 a screenshot of 39 01:34.000 --> 01:38.170 exactly that. So here is a screenshot I took before I clicked on this tile. So 40 01:38.170 --> 01:39.360 I clicked on the tile, 41 01:39.360 --> 01:42.120 and then they went through some pre checks. And then after about 10 minutes, it 42 01:42.120 --> 01:43.200 was fully activated 43 01:43.200 --> 01:46.120 and ready to go. So again, this is what we look like before you click on that 44 01:46.120 --> 01:47.360 button and click on 45 01:47.360 --> 01:51.130 activate. Now this is a deck at the live interface for the NSX manager as a 46 01:51.130 --> 01:52.240 subset here under the 47 01:52.240 --> 01:56.820 NSX application platform. And notice here that shows as up now if we scroll 48 01:56.820 --> 01:58.080 down, I have two more 49 01:58.080 --> 02:01.990 tiles, one for NSX network detection and response, a one for NSX malware WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 49 01:58.080 --> 02:01.990 tiles, one for NSX network detection and response, a one for NSX malware 50 02:01.990 --> 02:03.360 prevention. And what we'll 51 02:03.360 --> 02:06.980 do is we'll enable those as we get into those parts of the course. So for now, 52 02:06.980 --> 02:07.840 the NSX intelligence 53 02:07.840 --> 02:11.480 has been enabled. It's activated and it's showing as up. And to really 54 02:11.480 --> 02:13.040 appreciate the ability for 55 02:13.040 --> 02:17.120 NSX intelligence to show us a visual representation of traffic on our network, 56 02:17.120 --> 02:17.920 we first of all have 57 02:17.920 --> 02:21.020 to have some traffic on our network. So in the next video, I'm going to go 58 02:21.020 --> 02:22.160 ahead and make sure we have 59 02:22.160 --> 02:26.240 some VMs that are up and running and generating traffic inside our network. So 60 02:26.240 --> 02:27.120 I'll see you in the 61 02:27.120 --> 02:28.960 next video for exactly that.
