Secure Traffic Across Multiple Hyper-V Hosts

You can deploy your VM-Series firewall to secure the traffic of multiple Hyper-V hosts. In the example below, the VM-Series is deployed in Layer 2 mode protecting traffic to and from the guest VMs. A single VM-Series firewall protects traffic between four guest VMs spread across two Hyper-V hosts. VLAN tagging is used to logically isolate traffic and direct it to the firewall. Additionally, management traffic is decoupled from all other traffic by placing it on its own external vSwitch.
