#### Overview by Guide:
|
|
1. [[Switch Configuration]]
|
|
- This guide was made using a Cisco C3850 48 port switch.
|
|
- The guide show how to set up the switch with three main different configurations for the interfaces.
|
|
- Infrastructure Trunk
|
|
- These interfaces are to connect to your servers and allows interconnectivity with the VMs within your kit.
|
|
- The trunk interface allows the different VLANs to talk to one another. This will be every VLAN except the "Tools" VLAN. This is your DMZ and creates separation from your infrastructure and the customer network.
|
|
- Each server will have two of these connections. One for management and one for the VMs to use.
|
|
- Tools
|
|
- These interfaces will be used for the SIEM agents to receive the traffic from the customer network
|
|
- These will have no logical connection to any VLAN except "Tools"
|
|
- Workstations
|
|
- These interfaces are for the laptops to communicate with the kit.
|
|
2. [[ESXi Installation and Configuration]]
|
|
- For this guide ESXi is installed on a MiniRax.
|
|
- This can be done for multiple MiniRax and then later clustered using VCSA
|
|
- This can also be done using a CyberPac the only major difference is what ports will be used.
|
|
3. [[Temporary Port Groups]]
|
|
- This guide is to allow your Domain Controller to communicate before VCSA and its distributed switches are configured.
|
|
- These will later be deleted, the instructions on how to delete the port groups are at the end of [[Distributed Switch Configuration]].
|
|
4. [[Domain Controller Configuration]]
|
|
- The Domain Controllers acts as your DNS server and NTP server.
|
|
- With out a Domain Controller VCSA setup will not allow you to finish the installation.
|
|
5. [[VCSA Installation]]
|
|
- VCSA is the type 2 hypervisor allows the different ESXi host to work as one.
|
|
- Installation is done differently than other Virtual Machines and requires you to mount the Disk Image file to your local machine.
|
|
6. [[VCSA Configuration]]
|
|
- This Guide goes through adding your ESXi host to VCSA.
|
|
7. [[Distributed Switch Configuration]]
|
|
- The distributed switches build a visual representation of the VLANs as well as build another logical separation for the kits Infrastructure and the Tools DMZ.
