virtual machine.
2
In NSX Edge Appliances, click the Add (
) icon to add an appliance.
If you had selected Enable HA on the Name and Description page, you can add two appliances. If you
add a single appliance, NSX Edge replicates its configuration for the standby appliance ensures that the
two HA NSX Edge virtual machines are not on the same ESX host even after you use DRS and vMotion
(unless you manually vMotion them to the same host).
3 In the Add Edge Appliance dialog box, select the cluster or resource pool and datastore for the
appliance.
4 (Optional) Select the host on which the appliance is to be added.
5 (Optional) Select the vCenter folder within which the appliance is to be added.
6 Click OK.
7 Click Next.
The Interfaces Configuration page appears.
Configure Interfaces for Logical Router
You must specify the management interface for the router. You use this interface for out-of-band (meaning
not over the same network your data travels) access to NSX Edge. Unlike other network interfaces on the
device, which receive and transmit traffic flowing between different network interfaces on the device
(transit traffic), the out-of-band management interface accepts traffic only to and from the router itself.
Using a separate, dedicated interface for managing the router is good since it does not interfere with
network traffic and the interface is available even if other network interfaces go down.
You can configure up to 999 interfaces, with a maximum of 8 uplinks.
Procedure
1 (Optional) On the Interfaces page, type the IP address for the management interface.
2 (Optional) In Management Interface Configuration, click Select next to the Connected To field and
select the logical switch or port group that you want to set as the management interface. Add ( ) icon
to add a subnet for the management interface.
3
In the Add Subnet dialog box, click the Add ( ) icon.
4 Type the IP address of the subnet and click OK. If you add more than one subnet, select the primary
subnet.
5 Type the subnet prefix length and click OK.
6
In Configure Interfaces, click the Add (
) icon to add a traffic interface and type a name for the
interface.
7 Select Internal or Uplink to indicate whether this is an internal or external interface.
8 Select the port group or VXLAN virtual wire to which this interface should be connected.
a Click Select next to the Connected To field.
b Depending on what you want to connect to the interface, click the Virtual Wire or Distributed
Portgroup tab.
