Veeam Backup for GCP and Multi-tenancy

Luca Dell'Oca, February 17, 2021February 16, 2021

Since we released Veeam Backup for Google Cloud Platform (can we call it VB4GCP from now on, do you mind?) a few weeks ago, many users have immediately started to use it.

Let’s test this in the lab!

Set a static IP in VeeamPN appliance

Luca Dell'Oca, March 31, 2020March 21, 2020

For a new chapter of my book on Veeam Availability Console, I created a second virtual datacenter and I needed to connect the two of them together with a vpn. I have many options, like using the embedded ipsec capabilities of the NSX Edge i have at both sites, as they both run vCloud Director, but I decided to use Veeam Powered Network, in order to use this opportunity to learn more about it. And the first thing I’ve learned was how to configure the appliance with a static IP address.
