When server virtualization is deployed in the data center, virtual
servers typically are not managed the same way as physical
servers. Server virtualization is treated as a special deployment,
leading to longer deployment time, with a greater degree of
coordination among server, network, storage, and security
administrators. With the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series, deployment of
your virtualized servers allows you to have a consistent networking
feature set and provisioning process all the way from the VM access
layer to the core of the data center network infrastructure allowing
your virtual servers to leverage the same network configuration,
security policies, diagnostic tools, and operations models.
