In this blog post I will describe a new feature where NSX-T 3.1 and later supports Inter TEP communication within the same host. Edge TEP IP can be on the same subnet and VLAN as the local hypervisor TEPs. This is beneficial for collapsed cluster topologies where Edge Node VMs are running on vSphere Hosts which are configured for NSX-T, as Transport Nodes. There are a lot of topologies where there is a collapsed Compute & Edge or Management & Edge Clusters where this feature is beneficial.
This blog post discusses five Edge Cluster designs for NSX-T and vSphere with Tanzu.
This is the next post on a series of posts on NSX-T Edge Node design topologies. In this blog post I will describe an Edge Node design topology hosting a Tier-0 Gateway with Dynamic Routing with BGP. This Edge Node topology supports Active/Active and Active/Standby Tier-0 design.
With the Edge Node Virtual Appliances it is important to know on which vSphere Hosts the Edge Nodes are going to run, how many physical NICs are available and if the Edge Node is running on top of a VSS/VDS or N-VDS and how teaming is configured. In this design topology the Edge Nodes are running on hosts with one VDS with two Physical NICs.

In this blog post I will describe an Edge Node design topology hosting a Tier-0 Gateway with Static Routing with a HA VIP address configured.

In this design topology the Edge Nodes are running on hosts with two VDS with four Physical NICs.
