Tutorial: Add a network segment in Azure VMware Solution

After deploying Azure VMware Solution, you can configure an NSX-T network segment from NSX-T Manager or the Azure portal. Once configured, the segments are visible in Azure VMware Solution, NSX-T Manager, and vCenter Server. NSX-T Data Center comes pre-provisioned by default with an NSX-T Tier-0 gateway in Active/Active mode and a default NSX-T Tier-1 gateway in Active/Standby mode. These gateways let you connect the segments (logical switches) and provide East-West and North-South connectivity.

Tip

The Azure portal presents a simplified view of NSX-T operations a VMware administrator needs regularly and targeted at users not familiar with NSX-T Manager.

In this tutorial, you learn how to:

[!div class="checklist"]

  • Add network segments using either NSX-T Manager or the Azure portal
  • Verify the new network segment

Prerequisites

An Azure VMware Solution private cloud with access to the vCenter Server and NSX-T Manager interfaces. For more information, see the Configure networking tutorial.

Use Azure portal to add an NSX-T segment

[!INCLUDE create-nsxt-segment-azure-portal-steps]

Use NSX-T Manager to add network segment

The virtual machines (VMs) created in vCenter Server are placed onto the network segments created in NSX-T and are visible in vCenter Server.

[!INCLUDE add-network-segment-steps]

Verify the new network segment

Verify the presence of the new network segment. In this example, ls01 is the new network segment.

  1. In NSX-T Manager, select Networking > Segments.
