I have covered a couple of NSX-T Federation blogs earlier. In this blog, we will setup OSPF in the underlay network as opposed to BGP. And we will setup stretched T0 Gateway with Active-Active HA mode. We will be using additional redistribution control from NSX end to ensure traffic ingresses/egresses via physical gateway in one … Continue reading NSX-T Federation Stretched T0 gateway Active-Active with locations Primary & Secondary – OSPF in physical network

nsx-t federation stretched t0 gateway active & standby with locations primary & secondary
NSX-T Federation provides networking and security across multiple locations. With NSX Federation, you can manage multiple NSX-T Data Center environments with a single pane of glass view, create gateways and segments that span one or more locations, and configure and enforce firewall rules consistently across locations. NSX segments (overlay networks) can span multiple locations. Span of NSX segment … Continue reading nsx-t federation stretched t0 gateway active & standby with locations primary & secondary
NSX-T VRF Gateway
VRF Gateway feature in NSX-T is similar to VRF lite feature in physical networks in the following ways: Just like there is no need of another physical router for a separate routing instance using VRF lite feature, there is no need to deploy additional edges in case of NSX-T VRF gateways. This drastically reduces the … Continue reading NSX-T VRF Gateway
NSX-T Federation – Active Active Data Centers
NSX-T Federation - Active Active Data Centers This blog covers NSX-T Federation feature which allows L2 stretching between Data Centers as well as supports micro segmentation for workloads based on security tags. Earlier blogs covered NSX-T Federation with a single Tier 0 stretched Gateway. Here we explore how two Tier 0 Gateways can … Continue reading NSX-T Federation – Active Active Data Centers
NSX-V to NSX-T Migration using Layer 2 Bridging
NSX-V to NSX-T Migration using Layer 2 Bridging This blog will explore how we can migrate workloads which are on hosts prepared for NSX-V to hosts prepared for NSX-T using NSX-T Layer 2 Bridging. Cluster Setup In the lab setup, four hosts ESXi 1 up to 4 are prepared for NSX-T and the remaining … Continue reading NSX-V to NSX-T Migration using Layer 2 Bridging
NSX-T Routing Configuration
NSX-T Routing Configuration Overall Topology used in the lab Pre-requisites like NSX-T manager installation, preparing and configuring compute host transport nodes, preparing and configuring edge transport nodes are covered here.As shown in the topology above, two Tier 0 gateways are configured in the lab.One Tier 0 gateway is configured in Active-Active High Availability mode and … Continue reading NSX-T Routing Configuration
NSX-T Routing
NSX-T Routing References: NSX-T Reference Design Before we discuss the routing part, it is essential to cover key topics related to NSX-T 1. N-VDS 2. Transport Zone 3. Compute Host Transport Nodes 4. Edge Transport Nodes 1. N-VDS Is responsible for switching packets and is responsible for forwarding traffic between VMs or between VMs and … Continue reading NSX-T Routing
