A Network Approach To Automated VM moves with Virtualization Visibility

Move a VM from one physical server to another and network port profile, VLANs, security settings etc have to be reconfigured.  Many networking companies haven’t taken the critical step of giving complete visibility and control of the VM lifecycle from an infrastructure perspective.  But with XNV, Extreme Networks is bringing this functionality and visibility to network administrators, tracking VMs and applying policy as they move throughout the network.  Shehzad Merchant Sn. Director for Strategy at Extreme Networks joins me for a discussion about Extreme’s approach to network automation and visibility of virtualized infrastructure through its XNV software module.
