AVI – Curious-Techies

A short conversation on how to check and troubleshoot network connectivity from AVI Service Engines.

CuriousTechie: Hello IT Guy, I am new to AVI and sometimes I get stuck in troubleshooting connectivity issues on service engines. Is there a way to check connectivity of the data nics from the service engines?

ITGuy: Sure there is a simple way! You may login to the network namespace of the data nic inside the service engine and check the connectivity.

CuriousTechie: Can you please show me how to do that? Here is my scenario!

I have NSX-T cloud with service engines running, I have created a virtual service but the Virtual Service is DOWN and the Pool is DOWN as well. Also I am not able to reach the SE data nics.

A conversation about how to configure GSLB service to provide the appropriate Public or Private IP as per the incoming DNS request.

CuriousTechie: Hello IT Guy, I am in a planning phase for a GSLB implementation and have some doubts around the DNS services, can you help me with it.

ITGuy: Sure! I recently had a conversation around GSLB which you can find here.

CuriousTechie: Yes! I have a fair understanding of GSLB, but I am looking for some specifics around how the GSLB DNS service determines which IP (Public or Private) it provides in the DNS response for Internal and External users. Can you help me to get some clarity and show the actual configuration?
