After You Install VMware Cloud Director

After you create the VMware Cloud Director server group, you can install Microsoft Sysprep files and Cassandra database. If you are using a PostgreSQL database, you can configure SSL and adjust some parameters on the database.

Starting with version 10.1, service providers and tenants can use the VMware Cloud Director API to test connections to remote servers, and to verify the server identity as part of an SSL handshake. To protect VMware Cloud Director network connections, configure a deny list of internal hosts that are unreachable to tenants who are using the VMware Cloud Director API for connection testing. Configure the deny list after the VMware Cloud Director installation or upgrade and before granting tenants access to VMware Cloud Director. See Configure a Test Connection Denylist.
