Networker with FLR with network segmentation

Hello community

 

I am trying to understand in detail how Networker works with Vmware integration in a environment that is heavily segmented with firewalls and only ’must have’ traffic is allowed.

 

Everything else I have figured out but about FLR I do not find enough documentation.. or missed it. So things I have not found:

- who/what provides the FLR agent installation source

- can it be downloaded and distributed and kept at latest version with guests native and centralized software tools

Also I have missed the information what component are active and with what protocols when FLR is in action, how all the necessary hand shaking and data flow from ddboost device/vproxy/storage node/hypervisor actually to target happens

 

Any pointers to information would be nice

 

Br,
