The VLANs used in VRF Lite are configured on the uplink interface of the VRF gateway, which enables traffic segmentation and routing within the VRF context.The uplink trunk segment is where multiple VLANs can be configured and tagged, allowing them to be used by the VRF Lite setup for routing and segmentation across the network.

TIER0_DISTRIBUTED_ROUTER: The Tier-0 Distributed Router spans all transport nodes, providing distributed routing capabilities across the NSX environment at the Tier-0 level.DISTRIBUTED_ROUTER_TIER1: Similarly, the Tier-1 Distributed Router spans all transport nodes, enabling distributed routing at the Tier-1 level, which allows routing functions to occur closer to the workload VMs across the transport nodes.

TEP (Tunnel Endpoint): TEPs (Tunnel Endpoints) are configured on transport nodes to handle the encapsulation and decapsulation of the Geneve protocol. TEPs are responsible for creating the overlay network by encapsulating traffic in the Geneve protocol when it moves between transport nodes and decapsulating it upon arrival.

For a VMware Kubernetes deployment in an NSX environment, the minimum recommended MTU size for the UPLINK profile is 1700. This allows sufficient space for the additional overhead introduced by encapsulation protocols, such as Geneve, used in NSX-T Data Center, ensuring optimal performance and avoiding fragmentation.

Cluster Format Type: This parameter specifies the type of cluster format that will be used for the NSX Application Platform deployment.Upload Kubernetes Configuration File: NSX Application Platform requires a Kubernetes environment, and the configuration file for Kubernetes must be uploaded to facilitate the deployment.

It supports a 4-byte autonomous system number: BGP on a Tier-0 Gateway supports 4-byte AS (Autonomous System) numbers, which are necessary for larger routing domains.Can be used as an Exterior Gateway Protocol: BGP is commonly used as an Exterior Gateway Protocol to establish routing between different autonomous systems (AS).BGP is enabled by default: On a Tier-0 Gateway, BGP is typically enabled by default, allowing administrators to configure it for external routing.

The set ntp-server command is used on NSX Manager and NSX Edge to configure the NTP (Network Time Protocol) settings. This command allows administrators to specify the NTP server, ensuring that the NSX components synchronize their time accurately with the designated time server.

VMware recommends deploying a virtual NSX Edge Node using an ISO in either automated or interactive mode. This method provides flexibility and ensures that the NSX Edge node is deployed properly with all the necessary configurations. Using an ISO allows for a more streamlined and controlled deployment process, especially in larger environments.

Display how the different NSX components are interconnected.Network Topology in NSX provides a visual representation of how different NSX components (like Edge nodes, Logical Routers, and other NSX components) are interconnected.Display the VMs connected to Segments.It also allows you to see which VMs are connected to specific segments (logical switches).Display how the Physical components are interconnected.The Network Topology view includes information about how physical network components are connected, providing a comprehensive overview of both the virtual and physical networking infrastructure.

For a 3-node NSX Manager cluster, all nodes must be within the same subnet to ensure proper communication and functionality between them.A compute manager must be configured before adding nodes to the cluster, as it provides the necessary integration between the NSX Manager and the underlying virtualization infrastructure (such as vSphere or vCenter).
