Network segmentation is the best feature or configuration for securing network traffic between the management and storage replication environments. Network segmentation is the practice of dividing a computer network into subnets, each serving a different purpose or function. By dividing the network into different segments, it is possible to control and monitor the flow of traffic between the different segments, and to implement different security policies for each segment.

For example, the management environment could be segmented from the storage replication environment, and only specific traffic, such as management traffic, would be allowed to flow between the two segments. This can help to protect the management environment from potential security threats that may originate from the storage replication environment.

Other options like firewall rules, VM anti-affinity rules, and different storage containers can also help to secure network traffic, but network segmentation provides a more comprehensive and granular way to secure the traffic between different environments.

You can find more information on this topic in the Nutanix Security Configuration Guide, which is available on the Nutanix support website:

The Data Services IP address is the address that allows external connections to Nutanix storage presented by the Volumes feature. This address is used to access the storage from external sources and is used for replication and external snapshotting.

Image Placement Policies can be mapped to target clusters using labels. Labels are key-value pairs that can be used to associate arbitrary metadata with clusters and VMs. Labels can be used to define Image Placement Policies, which specify which clusters can be used for a given image.

App Mobility Fabric is a technology from Nutanix that allows applications and data to move freely between runtime environments. It allows applications and data to be moved from one environment to another without any disruption or downtime. Reference: https://www.nutanix.com/products/appmobility- fabric

A manual VM in-place restore can be performed using the Recovery Point option in Prism Central.

This option enables an administrator to restore a VM to a previous state without needing to create a new VM. Reference: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Prism-Admin- Guide-v5_6:pr-vms-backup-restore-c.html

Replication Factor 2 (RF2) refers to the number of copies of data written in the cluster. When RF2 is enabled, the Nutanix Distributed File System (NDFS) will create two copies of the data, resulting in higher levels of data durability and availability.

Enabling Flash Mode will set the storage tier preference to SSD, meaning that data will be stored on the high-performance SSD storage tier. Flash Mode is designed to speed up the performance of applications by ensuring that the most frequently used data is stored on the faster storage tier.
