Cloud Foundry Networking with VMware NSX - Usha Ramachandran, Sai Chaitanya
summary
Cloud Foundry moves from NAT to per-container IPs with PCF 1.11 using the CNI model and a VXLAN “silk” overlay (default 10.250.5/16), or an NSX plugin for deeper security. The integration wires Diego cells to NSX as logical ports, tags instances, and enforces zero‑trust with NSX‑T distributed firewall rules created either by the CF network policy API or the NSX manager. Ops Manager installs an NSX tile that deploys the NSX container plugin and CNI agents on cells. Demo shows front end initially blocked then allowed after a CF policy creates a firewall rule.
