SpoofGuard is another tool to help administrators limit unknown virtual machines from being spun-up in the environment. As new machines are provisioned, SpoofGuard can check whether a machine is trusted to send and receive network traffic by the vShield App Firewall.
SpoofGuard is disabled by default.
In order to proceed, we require access to vShield App through the vSphere Client plugin. This client can run on any modern Windows desktop operating system or server operating system.
Note
The vShield vSphere Client plugin requires Adobe Flash, which is not supported on Linux operating systems at this time.
Ensure the vCenter account used for login has administrative rights to vShield Manager.
