A tier-1 gateway is typically connected to a tier-0 gateway in the northbound direction and to segments in the southbound direction.
If you are adding a tier-1 gateway from Global Manager in NSX Federation, see Add a Tier-1 Gateway from Global Manager.
Tier-0 and tier-1 gateways support the following addressing configurations for all interfaces (external interfaces, service interfaces and downlinks) in both single tier and multi-tiered topologies:
- IPv4 only
- IPv6 only
- Dual Stack - both IPv4 and IPv6

Results
If NSX Federation is configured, this feature of reconfiguring a gateway by clicking on an entity is applicable to gateways created by the Global Manager (GM) as well. Note that some entities in a GM-created gateway can be modified by the Local Manager, but others cannot. For example, Static Routes of a GM-created gateway cannot be modified by the Local Manager. Also, from the Local Manager, you can edit existing Service Interfaces of a GM-created gateway but you cannot add an interface.
