Lesson 3 Flashcards
Server Based Desktops
Thin Client
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
Local Desktops
Guest Host
Host OS
Hypervisor
The software layer that emulates the necessary hardware for an operating system to run in, creating a virtual machine within which a guest OS can run
Software Layer
Manages hardware allocated to virtual machines
Allows multiples OS’s to run on a single computer
Uses virtual processor
Type 1 hypervisor
Runs directly on computer
Host OS runs in a virtual machine
Each client OS runs in a separate virtual machine
Type 2 hypervisor
Virtual machines run within the host OS
Each client OS runs in a separate virtual machine
Today’s Virtual desktops general tasks
Prepare the host computer
Install the hypervisor
Create a virtual machine
Install the guest OS
Install appropriate utilities within the guest OS
Configure security
Locate host key
Major hypervisor sources (today’s virtual desktops)
Citrix
VMware
Parallels
Microsoft
Oracle
Physical Switch
Device that connects networked computers and devices
Virtual Switch
A simulated switch that connects VM’s to a network
External Switch
VM’s access physical network
Internal Switch
VM’s access other VM’s on the same switch
VM’s access host computer
No access to physical network
Private
VM’s access other VM’s on same switch
No access to host computer
No access to physical network
Quick Create

dumb terminal
A device consisting of a little more than a keyboard and display with a connection to a host computer and having no native processing power of its own
Thin Client
