Welcome to NSXworld, today we will be discussing about DHCP & its configuration in VMware NSX.
DHCP is one of the important features available in NSX and can be used for dynamic IP address allocation to your hosts, NSX supports Segment DHCP server configuration on the downlink interface and the service interface. You can configure a Segment DHCPv4 server, or a Segment DHCPv6 server, or both, on the segment, before we consume DHCP services in NSX, Let’s talk about prerequisites which we need to take care of.
Prerequisites:
- Base build of NSX is configured, bit obvious.
- Edge nodes & Edge clusters are deployed.
- DHCP profile is configured in your network profiles. Networking > Network Profile > DHCP > Add DHCP Profile
