Prepare NSX-T Data Center Environment to Bridge Layer 2 Networks

Review your existing NSX Data Center for vSphere environment and plan your bridging requirements.

Prepare a plan to determine the infrastructure that you will require for your bridging needs. For example:

• How many Logical Switches do you have in your existing NSX for vSphere environment?
• How many Logical Switches you want to extend with NSX-T overlay segments?
• Do you plan to extend all Logical Switches in a single batch or one network at a time?
• Do you plan to configure High Availability (HA) on the NSX-T Edge nodes?
• Do you have enough capacity on the NSX for vSphere prepared host to deploy the number and size of NSX-T Edge nodes you require for bridging?
