Network Wizkid's Technical Knowledge Base

In this article, I would like to demonstrate by video how we can lab with the virtual Adaptive Security Appliance (ASAv) by just the use of VMware Workstation. We will achieve this by creating virtual networks in VMware Workstation and then connecting to the Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM) using our physical machine. As mentioned in the video, I have attached the example topology used below. Please review the tutorial in the video below and if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment.    

In this article, we will look at how to configure SNMP for VMware ESXi. Accompanying the post is a video demonstration covering the process. The following demonstration uses VMware ESXi 6.0 but should also be applicable to other versions. 1. Enable SSH access to your ESXi server and authenticate using admin credentials. 2. Enter the following commands: esxcli system snmp set --communities CC1ELab esxcli system snmp set --targets 192.168.1.10@161/snmpstring esxcli system snmp set --enable true 3. Verify SNMP by polling your ESXi server That's all there is to it! You can also check out the video demonstration below.
