Managed IP address is set for each vCenter server in the vCenter Server Runtime Settings. See vCenter

Server and Host Management.

DHCP is available on VXLAN transport VLANs if you are using DHCP for IP assignment for VMKNics

A consistent distributed virtual switch type (vendor etc.) and version is being used across a given

transport zone. Inconsistent switch types can lead to undefined behavior in your logical switch.

5- tuple hash distribution should be enabled for Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).

Set Up the Control Plane

The controller cluster is the control plane component responsible for managing the switching and routing

modules in the hypervisors. It consists of controller nodes to manage specific logical switches. Using a

controller cluster to manage VXLAN-based logical switches eliminates the need for multicast support from

the physical network infrastructure. You don’t have to provision multicast group IP addresses, and you also

don’t need to enable PIM routing or IGMP snooping features on physical switches or routers. Selecting the

Unicast check box while creating the logical switch enables this mode of VXLAN operation.

VMware recommends that you add three controllers for scale and redundancy.

Procedure

1 On the Installation tab, ensure that the Management tab is selected.

In the NSX Controller nodes section, click the Add Node (

) icon.

3 In the Add Controller dialog box, select the datacenter on which you are adding the node.

4 Select the cluster or resource pool where the controller is to be deployed.

5 Select the datastore and host.

6 Select the logical switch, portgroup, or distributed portgroup to which the node is to be connected.

The network that the controller is connected to is the management port group on the Distributed

Virtual Switch that spans the environment.

7 Select the IP pool from which IP addresses are to be assigned to the node.

NOTE The IP address of the controller must be reachable from the NSX Manager and the management

network of the vSphere hosts communicating with the controller.

8 Type and re-type a password for the controller.

The password must be 8 characters and must follow 3 of the following 4 rules:

At least one upper case letter

At least one lower case letter

At last one number

At least one special character

9 Click OK.

When deployed, the controller has a Normal status and displays a green check mark.

The NSX controller can now control the traffic flow through your logical switch.
