The message ID that will allow the administrator to track changes on firewall security rules is "FIREWALL". This message ID is part of the NSX-T3.1 documentation and will be used to log any changes made to the firewall security policy. This will allow the administrator to easily audit and track any changes made to the policy.

The health status of an NSX Service Instance is an indicator of the overall health and functionality of the service.

For an NSX Service Instance to show as Up, the following two parameters must be functioning:

D. VMs must be available on the host - The VMs that are associated with the service must be present on the host and able to communicate with the NSX Manager. If a VM is not available on the host, the service will not be able to function properly.

E. VMs must be powered on - The VMs that are associated with the service must be powered on and running. If a VM is not powered on, the service will not be able to function properly.

NSX Intelligence is a security analytics solution from VMware that can be used to achieve Zero-Trust Security and minimize operational overhead. It provides an AI-driven security analytics platform that can detect and respond to threats in real-time, allowing organizations to quickly identify threats and respond to them before they can cause damage. Additionally, it also provides automated security operations and orchestration capabilities that can help reduce manual overhead and free up resources for more important tasks.

For more information on NSX Intelligence and how it can help achieve Zero-Trust Security and minimize operational overhead, please refer to the NSX-T Data Center documentation: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-NSX-T-Data-Center/3.0/nsx-t-3.0-intelligence/GUID-C2B2AF2E-A76A-46B8-A67A-42D7A9E924A9.html

NSX Distributed Firewall is used to create firewall rules to control traffic between networks.

For further reading, see the VMware NSX-T Data Center Administration Guide (https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-T-Data-Center/index.html#com.vmware.nsxt.admin.doc/GUID-4B6A4A87-F9C7-4AAB-923F-C6B84C33AF7D.html)  for more information on configuring firewall rules.

NSX Manager needs to be reconfigured. Guest Introspection requires additional configuration of the NSX Manager in order to collect information from the Windows based VMs. This configuration includes setting up the Guest Introspection service with the appropriate credentials and configuring the rules to allow the traffic through the firewall. Once this is done, the Windows VMs will start reporting information to the NSX Manager.

For more information on setting up Guest Introspection, please refer to the NSX-T Data Center documentation: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-NSX-T-Data-Center/3.0/nsx-t-3.0-installing/GUID-3B7F12AD-D8F7-44B9-A56B-E71F64C2F6A0.html

The component in a transport node that receives the firewall configuration from the central control plane is the NSX-MPA (Management Plane Agent). The NSX-MPA runs on each transport node and is responsible for connecting to the NSX-T central control plane and receiving the configuration for the transport node. It is also responsible for pushing the configuration down to the other components on the transport node, such as the NSX-Proxy, NSX-Appl-Proxy, and NSX-CCP.
