Networking Fabric in

Hyper-V and VMM

Richard Ulfvin
Who the heck areya!
Might know commands like sh run or sh config
might have tried tools like NetSH or Netmon
played with Hyper-V or just configured an IP address on a server
Session Objectives And Takeaways
Objectives
Understand networking in Windows Server 2012
Understand the Hyper-V switch and its features/extensions
Understand what SDN is and Microsofts approach to it
Get to learn how Virtual Machine Manager can manage networks
Key Takeaways
When to use different features/extensions
How to get started
Who AmI Where do I work
Why this session?
We face many network challanges like
Keep systems and services running
High to continous availability
High reliability and reduced complexity
Security, multitenancy, extensibility
Cannot keep throwing money at it (CAPEX)
Network virtualization, QoS, bandwidth management
Performance (latency, throughput, scalability)
Control Operational cost (OPEX) Reduce complexity
Network bottlenecks
In the host networking stack
In the NICs
In the switches
Network Features
Receive Side Scaling (RSS)
Receive Segment Coalescing (RSC)
Dynamic Virtual Machine Queuing (DVMQ)
Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV)
NIC Teaming
RDMA/Multichannel support for virtual machines on SMB 3.0
and more features.
DCTCP/DCB/QoS
DHCP Guard/Router Guard/ Port Mirroring
Port ACLs
IPSEC Task Offload for VMs

The Hyper-V Switch
Hyper-V Port ACLs & Switch Extentions.
Extensions are Filters or Windows Filtering Platformproviders.
Extensions state / configuration is unique to each instance of an extensible
switch on a machine
