Example methods are provided for a network scanning controller to perform agent-based network scanning in a software-defined networking (SDN) environment. In one example, the method may comprise identifying multiple networks for which network scanning is required, performing a first network scan using a first agent to obtain first address mapping information associated with multiple first workloads, and performing a second network scan using a second agent to obtain second address mapping information associated with multiple second workloads. The first agent and the multiple first workloads may be located in a first network, and the second agent and the multiple second workloads in a second network. The method may also comprise generating aggregated address information based on the first address mapping information and the second address mapping information.

Example methods and systems to validate integrity of data and one or more configurations in response to an upgrade in a virtualized computing environment are disclosed. One method may include preparing a first pre-upgrade backup file and a first post-upgrade backup file in response to a data plane upgrade of the virtualized computing environment and validating the integrity of data and one or more configurations based on the first pre-upgrade backup file and the first post-upgrade backup file before upgrading a control plane of the virtualized computing environment.
