Now that Nexus 1000V, the first virtual switch for VMware vSphere is out for
sale ([and

The company just uploaded two new HD videos on Facebook that cover how

create them with a SSH console and how to apply them with the vSphere client,
how to monitor the network statistics of a virtual machine despite its migration
from a host to another with vMotion.

Both are worth a check:
