vmware-nsx-security

Use this skill whenever the user needs to manage VMware NSX security (rebranded VMware vDefend in VCF 9) — distributed firewall (DFW) policies, security groups, microsegmentation, and IDS/IPS. Directly handles: create/manage DFW policies and rules, security groups, VM tags, network traceflow diagnostics, IDPS profiles and status. Always use this skill for "create firewall rule", "set up microsegmentation", "add VM to security group", "run traceflow", "check IDS status", "vDefend firewall rule", or any NSX security / vDefend / DFW task. Do NOT use for NSX networking operations like segments, gateways, NAT, or routing (use vmware-nsx), or VM lifecycle (use vmware-aiops). For load balancing/AVI/AKO use vmware-avi.
