Module 4 Creating and Configuring Virtual Machine Networks
Module Overview • Creating and Using Hyper-V Virtual Switches Advanced Hyper-V Networking Features Configuring and Using Hyper-V Network Virtualization
Lesson 1: Creating and Using Hyper-V Virtual Switches • Overview of the Hyper-V Virtual Switch Types of Virtual Switches What Is VLAN Tagging?
Overview of the Hyper-V Virtual Switch Compares with VMware vSwitch (Not VDS) • Software implemented layer two switch • Connects virtual machines to virtual and physical networks • Parent partition is also A virtual machine • Extensible, has advanced features, can be replaced • Policy enforcement, isolation, traffic shaping, protection • Managed by Hyper-V Manager and Windows PowerShell • Get-VMSwitch • Parent partition can have multiple virtual NICs • Can be connected to different virtual switches • Can have different bandwidth limitations
Types of Virtual Switches • Parent has physical network adapter(s) • Each virtual machine (and parent) has virtual network adapter(s) • Each virtual network adapter is connected to a virtual switch • Type of virtual switch is: • External – connects to a physical or wireless adapter • Internal – parent and virtual machine connections only • Private – virtual machine connections only • Configuration • Use Virtual Switch Manager to create virtual switches • Use virtual machine settings to connect a virtual network adapter to a switch
Types of Virtual Switches Private Virtual machine Virtual machine Virtual machine Virtual machine Virtual machine Virtual machine Parent Parent Virtual machine Virtual machine App App App App App App App App App App Internal Parent App NAT External Parent App IP IP IP No IP - Physical network adapter - Virtual network adapter - Virtual switch
What Is VLAN Tagging? • Used to isolate network traffic for nodes that are connected to the same physical network • VLANs are used by Hyper-V to • Isolate Hyper-V server management networks • Isolate virtual machines that are connected to external virtual switches • Isolate virtual machines on a single Hyper-V server • VLAN ID can be configured on • Virtual machine network adapter • External and Internal virtual switch • VLAN is limited to a single physical subnet • VLAN ID has 12 bits (up to 4,094 VLAN IDs)
Lesson 2: Advanced Hyper-V Networking Features • Virtual Switch Expanded Functionality Virtual Switch Extensibility What Is SR-IOV? What Is Dynamic Virtual Machine Queue? Network Adapter Advanced Features NIC Teaming in Virtual Machines
Virtual Switch Expanded Functionality • ARP/Neighbor Discovery Poisoning protection • Protects against ARP and Neighbor Discovery spoofing • DHCP Guard protection • Protects against rogue DHCP server in virtual machine • Port ACLs • Enables isolation by allowing/denying traffic • Trunk mode to a virtual machine • Trunk mode forwards traffic from multiple VLANs • Network traffic monitoring • Bandwidth limit and burst support
Virtual Switch Extensibility Parent partition • Extensible • NDIS filter drivers • WFP callout drivers • Extensions • Ingress • Forwarding • Egress • Monitoring • Virtual switch can be replaced Virtual machine Virtual machine Physical NIC Virtual machine NIC Virtual machine NIC Host NIC Extension protocol Hyper-V virtual switch Capture extensions WFP extensions Filtering extensions Forwarding extension Extension miniport
What Is SR-IOV? • Requires support in network adapter • Provides Direct Memory Access to virtual machines • Increases network throughput • Reduces network latency • Reduces CPU overhead on the Hyper-V server • Virtual machine bypasses virtual switch • Supports Live Migration Virtual switch Routing VLAN Filtering Virtual machine Physical NIC Virtual Function Virtual NIC SR-IOV Physical NIC Parent partition • Even when different SR-IOV adapters are used VMBUS Network I/O withSR-IOV Network I/O without SR-IOV
What Is Dynamic Virtual Machine Queue? • Network adapter uses receive queues to route traffic to the appropriate virtual machine • Physical network adapter must support VMQ • Dynamically use multiple CPUs when processingvirtual machine network traffic • DMA reduces CPU overhead on Hyper-V server • Beneficial when virtual machines receive lot of network traffic • VMQ is automatically configured and tuned • Based on processor networking and CPU load • VMQ is enabled by default on a virtual network adapter • Used only if the physical network adapter supports VMQ
Network Adapter Advanced Features • Same features available for all virtual network adapters • Features are implemented in Hyper-V virtual switch
NIC Teaming in Virtual Machines • Provides redundancy and aggregates bandwidth • Can be used at the operating system and virtual machine level • Multiple physical network adapters in an NIC team • If a physical adapter fails, virtual switch has connectivity • Multiple virtual network adapters in an NIC team • If a virtual switch fails, virtual machine has connectivity • Particularly important when SR-IOV is used • SR-IOV traffic bypasses the virtual switch • Intended and optimized to support teaming of SR-IOV • May be used with any virtual network interface • Virtual machine must have multiple network adapters • Connected to different virtual switches • MAC address spoofing must be enabled
Lesson 3: Configuring & Using Hyper-V Network Virtualization • Providing Multitenant Network Isolation What Is Network Virtualization? Benefits of Network Virtualization What Is Network Virtualization Generic Routing Encapsulation? What Are Network Virtualization Policies?
Providing Multitenant Network Isolation • Multiple isolated networks on the same infrastructure • VLANs are often used • Limited scalability (maximum of 4094 VLANs) • VLANs cannot span multiple subnets • Challenging to reconfigure when adding or moving virtual machine Switch Switch VLAN ID Virtual machines
Providing Multitenant Network Isolation • Private VLANs • Addresses some VLAN scalability issues • Reduces number of IP subnets and VLANs • Virtual switch can limit virtual machines to the same VLAN • Port ACLs • Challenging to manage and update ACLs • Hyper-V virtual switch supports private VLANs and port ACLs • The solution is Software Defined Networking • Network virtualization is an implementation of Software Defined Networking • Hyper-V enables network virtualization
What Is Network Virtualization? Blue virtual machine Red virtual machine Blue network Red network Physical network Physical server • Server virtualization • Multiple virtual machines on a same physical server • Each virtual machine is isolated from others • Network virtualization • Multiple virtual networks on a same physical network • Each virtual network is isolated from others
Benefits of Network Virtualization • Flexible virtual machine placement • Multitenant network isolation without VLANs • IP address reuse • Live migration across subnets • Is compatible with existing network infrastructure • Transparent moving of virtual machines to shared IaaS cloud • Can be configured using Windows PowerShell • Can also use System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager

What Are Network Virtualization Policies? • Define customer address-provider address mappings • Specify on which Hyper-V server virtual machines are running • Hyper-V implements policies by translating incoming and outgoing packets • If a virtual machine is moved, policies are modified • Virtual machine configuration stays the same Policy Settings Provider Address Space Blue Yonder Airlines Data Center Network 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.12 Hyper-V Host 1 Hyper-V Host 2 Woodgrove Bank SQL SQL WEB WEB 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.2 10.1.1.2 Customer Address Spaces
