vCloud Hybrid ServicevCloud Hybrid Service is a secure infrastructure-as-a-service cloud owned and operatedby VMware, built on the trusted foundation of vSphere. The service supports existingworkloads and new application development, giving IT administrators and architects acommon platform for seamlessly extending existing data centers to the cloud byleveraging the same tools and processes they use today.

vCloud Hybrid Service has two service offerings.

vCloud Hybrid Service has two service offerings. Dedicated Cloud and Virtual PrivateCloud.

Dedicated Cloud

Dedicated Cloud customers are provided physically isolated pools of vCPU and vRAM.Compute nodes within our Data Centers for Dedicated Cloud are air-gapped. Networkand Storage are logically isolated on modern, high-end multi-tenant infrastructure, withappropriate resource guarantees in place. Dedicated Cloud customers are also provideda segregated cloud management stack, unique to their service and not shared withother customers.

HOL-HBD-1301

Page 6HOL-HBD-1301

Dedicated Cloud Details

The Dedicated Cloud offering includes 30 GHz of Compute (vCPU) capacity, 120 GB ofvRAM, and 6TB of Storage to start. Also, 3 public IPs are provided, as well as a 50 Mbpsnetwork link, burstable to 1 Gbps.

Virtual Private Cloud

Virtual Private Cloud customers are provided pools of vCPU, vRAM Network and Storageusing the same design architecture as Dedicated Cloud, but are logically isolated.Thanks to the power of VMware vSphere, while physical resources are operating in amulti-tenant design, tenants are provided strict guarantees to those resources, and loadis evenly balanced across the infrastructure, ensuring robust and scalable availability toeveryone in the cloud.

HOL-HBD-1301

Page 7HOL-HBD-1301

Virtual Private Cloud Details

The Virtual Private Cloud offering includes 5 GHz of Compute (vCPU) capacity, 20 GB ofvRAM, and 2TB of Storage to start. Also, 2 public IPs are provided, as well as a 10 Mbpsnetwork link, burstable to 50 Mbps.

Virtual Datacenter (vDC)

In both cases vCloud Hybrid Service delivers the concept of a Virtual Datacenter (vDC).In the case of the Dedicated Cloud offering a vCloud Hybrid Service customer couldhave multiple Virtual Datacenters. In the case of a Virtual Private Cloud customer theywould have only 1 Virtual Datacenter. It is via this Virtual Datacenter construct thatresources are deployed and managed.

You will be creating a NAT and Firewall rule that would enable a virtual web server tocommunicate over an external network.

You won't be creating an actual web server in this lab, we'll only be creating the NAT andFirewall rules that would allow a fictitious web server with an IP address of 10.0.0.1 tocommunicate.

Manage in vCloud Director

You'll need to configure NAT and Firewalls within vCloud Director. Click on the "Managein vCloud Director" button to access the vCloud Director Portal.

Identify External IP Address

In order to setup NAT and Firewall rules for our web server you'll first need to verify theExternal IP address of the Edge Gateway. Select the Edge Gateway by clicking on it.Then right-click and select "External IP Allocations".

Note External IP Address

You can see here that the Gateway is using 192.168.210.100. Normally this would be apublic IP address, but here in the lab we are using a private address.

Click the "Cancel" button below.

Configure Edge Gateway

To configure NAT and Firewall rules you'll first need to click on the "Org VDC Networks".

Select the Routed network by clicking on it. Then right-click and select "ConfigureServices".

Select NAT

Select the "NAT" tab by clicking on it.

Add DNAT

On the NAT pane you have two choices, "Add SNAT" and "Add DNAT". SNAT is for sourcebased rules, and DNAT is for destination based rules.

Destination and Source are from the prospective of vCloud Hybrid Service. For example,a source NAT rule means from a source within vCloud Hybrid Service to an externaldestination, while a destination NAT rule means from an outside source to a destinationwithin vCloud Hybrid Service.

In order to create a NAT rule that would allow external traffic to talk to an internal webserver we need to create a DNAT rule.

Click on the "Add DNAT" button.

Select Network

First we want to select a network to apply this rule. Click the down arrow in the "Appliedon" field and select the "VDC-DC-RAINPOLE-001-860-default-routed".

Edit DNAT Rule

From here we are going to configure the DNAT rule.

In the "Original (External) IP/range" field we are going to enter the external IP address ofthe gateway we discovered earlier. Enter "192.168.210.100". Remember normally thiswould be a public IP address, but due to limitations of the lab this is a private IP address.

In the "Protocol" field click on the dropdown arrow and select "TCP".

In the "Original port" field click the dropdown arrow and select "80".

In the "Translated (Internal) IP/range" field type the IP address "10.0.0.1". This is the IPaddress of our fictitious web server.

In the "Translated Port" field click on the dropdown arrow and select "80".

Click the "OK" button to apply the DNAT rule.

Select Firewall

Your NAT rule has now been created and enabled. Next we'll need to create a firewallrule to allow port 80 traffic to pass through the firewall.

Click on the "Firewall" tab.

Add Firewall Rule

To add a Firewall rule click the "Add" button.

Edit Firewall Rule

Here you will edit the firewall rule to allow traffic from the gateway IP address to thefictitious web server.

In the "Name" field enter "WWW".

In the "Source" field enter "192.168.210.100". This is the IP address of the gateway thatwould be accessed externally.

In the "Source port" click on the down arrow and select "80".

In the "Destination" enter "10.0.0.1". This is the IP address of the web server.

In the "Destination port" field click on the down arrow and select "80".

In the "Protocol" field click on the down arrow and select "TCP".

Leave everything else as is.

Click on the "OK" button.

Congratulations you've completed the lab and you've just setup a NAT and Firewall rulethat would allow external communication to a virtual web server.
