VMware: NSX: Using PowerCLI/PowerNSX to view distributed firewall (DFW) rules in a table format.
Out-GridView Example |
This was kind of a fun exercise and helpful considering the NSX plugin kinda blows, in flash client at least. Have yet to take a look at HTML5 one that was just released. Was asked if we could output currently configured DFW rules. Below you will find what I slapped together. If it's useful to you too, great. Also, please feel free give me feedback.
It will basically give you the following:
- Rule Number

- Rule ID
- Rule Name
- Source
- Destination
- Service Ports
- Action
- appliedTo
This script requires the following powershell modules:
- vmware.powercli
- powernsx
