To successfully install NSX Application Platform, you must prepare your environment by meeting the necessary system, licensing, form factor, ports and protocols, and interoperability requirements.
After your environment meets the minimum requirements, you must configure the VDS networking and set up compatible storage policies and port groups.
If you plan to use an offline setup without internet access, you must set up a private repository and use a self-signed certificate or a certification signed by a publicly trusted Certificate Authority. See Deploy Private Harbor and Upload NSX Application Platform Artifacts.
