Virtual Networking Tools

Virtual Networking Tools are software applications designed to simulate a physical network while abstracting underlying hardware details. These tools enable the creation, configuration, and management of virtual networks across geographically dispersed data centers. They often incorporate features such as network functions virtualization (NFV), multi-tenancy support, and advanced security mechanisms like micro-segmentation. Notably, these tools provide the flexibility to create complex network topologies without the constraints of physical equipment, rendering them useful for testing environments or training purposes. Their relevance in cloud computing is particularly high due to their ability to facilitate multi-cloud connectivity and orchestration.
