Most Information Technology professionals agree that virtualization is vital, as it provides a safe and malleable work environment with which to learn and experiment. The only downside is that virtualization can be extremely daunting to learn, and even harder to set up with strong security controls. There is a plethora of knowledge on how to build home labs, but it can be difficult to find. The premise of this book is to provide students a hands-on, go-to resource for building a secure, customizable lab environment.Readers will choose one of five hypervisors for building their baseline lab environment, and will be guided through performing all of the necessary setup tasks. This allows students to become more familiar with virtualization technologies, gain mastery over their chosen hypervisor, and design a safe and secure virtual lab environment for further endeavors.The second edition of this work covers new technologies, and adds an additional 400 pages of guidance and extra content over the first edition.Students should be aware that this is volume 1 of a two volume set, and that both volumes are required for the full experience. Volume I focuses on introducing students to virtualization, hypervisors, and virtual networking, then leads students to one of five hypervisor setup guides of their choosing.Volume I Contents:Chapter 1: If you build it… 12Chapter 2: Recommended Skills and Knowledge 26Chapter 3: Virtual Machines and Hypervisors 29Chapter 4: Introduction to Virtual Networks: Hosted vs. Bare-metal Hypervisor Networking 32Chapter 5: Hardware 39Chapter 6: Virtual Lab Design and Overview 44Chapter 7: Time to Choose Your Destiny 53Chapter 8: Client Hyper-V 57Chapter 9: VirtualBox 159Chapter 10: VMware Fusion Pro 264Chapter 11: VMware Workstation Pro 353Chapter 12: ESXi 448
