Use the Edge bridge profile that you created earlier to configure bridge settings on the overlay segment. The Edge bridge helps you to extend the overlay segment with the Logical Switch in your NSX-v environment.
The NSX-v prepared host on which you have deployed the NSX-T Edge bridge node serves as the transport node. This host has workload VMs that require connectivity with the overlay segment in your NSX-T environment.
Prerequisites
- An Edge bridge profile is added. For example, Edge_Bridge_Profile1.
- A segment is added in the overlay transport zone. For example, Segment-1 is added in the overlay transport zone Overlay-TZ.
- A Logical Switch is available in the NSX-v environment to extend Layer 2 connectivity with this NSX-T overlay segment.
For example, you are extending LogicalSwitch-1 with Segment-1.
