Looking for a list of VMware Firewall Services and their function.

[Ranger_rkm]

Hello,

I'm trying to find out what each of these VMware Services tasks are performing, under Firewall Properties, within Security Profiles.

I know that there has to be a list somewhere, I just cannot find it.  I need to know what the DVSSync Service does, I would think by the name if has to do with Distributed Virtual Switches.

But would like to have a VMware document to use as a reference.

Thanks,
