If the connection information for a registered NSX-V Manager instance changes, or if you want to change its name and description in VMware Cloud Director, you can modify its settings.
You can modify the settings that you configured when adding the NSX-V Manager instance. See (Optional) Add the Associated NSX Manager Instance to VMware Cloud Director.
Procedure
- From the top navigation bar, under Resources, click Infrastructure Resources.
- In the left pane, click vCenters and click the name of the vCenter Server instance that is associated with the target NSX-V Manager instance.
- In the upper-right corner of the NSX-V Manager Info section, click Edit.

- (Optional) To enable cross-virtual data center networking for the virtual data centers backed by this vCenter Server instance, turn on the toggle, and then enter the control VM properties and a name for the network provider scope.
The control VM properties are used for deploying an appliance on the
NSX-V Manager instance for cross-virtual data center networking components, such as a universal router.
