1
00:00.000 --> 00:03.240
So based on our plan, we have our tier zero router.

2
00:03.240 --> 00:05.600
It's got two interfaces behind the scenes

3
00:05.600 --> 00:07.680
because they're connected to an external segment.

4
00:07.680 --> 00:11.240
These services router function has been implemented on our edge nodes.

5
00:11.240 --> 00:14.880
And now it's time on our tier zero router to serve a virtual IP address.

6
00:14.880 --> 00:17.840
So we're going to use 192.168.1.60.

7
00:17.840 --> 00:21.160
So let's go to the NSX manager and do that right now.

8
00:21.160 --> 00:22.600
So here at the NSX manager,

9
00:22.600 --> 00:25.200
we'll click on the networking tab on top and on the left,

10
00:25.200 --> 00:29.240
we'll click on tier zero gateways and then we'll simply go into the details

11
00:29.240 --> 00:31.480
for our tier zero gateway and edit it.

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

11
00:29.240 --> 00:31.480
for our tier zero gateway and edit it.

12
00:31.480 --> 00:34.760
So we'll click on the three dots and then from the menu, click on edit.

13
00:34.760 --> 00:39.250
And then from here where it says the HA VIP for the virtual IP, we'll click on

14
00:39.250 --> 00:39.520
set.

15
00:39.520 --> 00:43.080
And then we'll click on add HA VIP configuration.

16
00:43.080 --> 00:45.200
And then we'll specify the IP address we want to use.

17
00:45.200 --> 00:51.320
So if we want to use 192.168.1.60 with a 24-bit mask, we specify that.

18
00:51.320 --> 00:54.360
And then we need to also specify the interfaces

19
00:54.360 --> 00:57.360
that are going to be logically behind the scenes supporting that.

20
00:57.360 --> 01:01.440
And so it says select exactly two interfaces for our fault tolerance.

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

20
00:57.360 --> 01:01.440
And so it says select exactly two interfaces for our fault tolerance.

21
01:01.440 --> 01:04.400
So we'll choose the first logical interface being provided by edge one.

22
01:04.400 --> 01:08.790
Then we'll also choose the second interface of .62 via edge two and we are good

23
01:08.790 --> 01:09.240
to go.

24
01:09.240 --> 01:13.640
So we'll click on add and then click on apply and then click on save.

25
01:13.640 --> 01:16.400
And we'll scroll down and we'll click on close editing.

26
01:16.400 --> 01:20.680
So from my management computer, I'm also on the 192.168.1 network.

27
01:20.680 --> 01:25.160
If that all works, I should be able to ping that virtual IP address

28
01:25.160 --> 01:28.360
that we just configured right here from my management computer.

29
01:28.360 --> 01:32.040
So let me bring over a command prompt and let's test that with a ping

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

29
01:28.360 --> 01:32.040
So let me bring over a command prompt and let's test that with a ping

30
01:32.040 --> 01:37.480
to 192.168.1.60 and survey says no problem.

31
01:37.480 --> 01:41.480
And we could also confirm that if we took that away, let's click on close

32
01:41.480 --> 01:42.920
and let's click on edit.

33
01:42.920 --> 01:44.920
So we'll edit the properties of our gateway.

34
01:44.920 --> 01:49.560
We'll go back to the HA VIP and let's go ahead and we'll delete that

35
01:49.560 --> 01:53.000
and click on delete and apply and save.

36
01:53.000 --> 01:56.360
So now that we don't have a virtual IP address set at .60,

37
01:56.360 --> 01:59.080
if we bring back that command window again, hit the up arrow key and press

38
01:59.080 --> 01:59.640
enter,

39
01:59.640 --> 02:03.640
we get no response just to confirm that that wasn't some other IP address on my

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

39
01:59.640 --> 02:03.640
we get no response just to confirm that that wasn't some other IP address on my

40
02:03.640 --> 02:06.200
192.168 network that I wasn't aware of.

41
02:06.200 --> 02:10.800
So it's not working right now, but if we go back and put it in by clicking on

42
02:10.800 --> 02:12.120
set and add

43
02:12.120 --> 02:15.880
and then we put it back in and then we select our interfaces to support that

44
02:15.880 --> 02:20.760
and then click on add and click on apply and save and scroll down and click on

45
02:20.760 --> 02:21.800
close editing.

46
02:21.800 --> 02:24.520
Now we go back to our command prompt and hit the up arrow key.

47
02:24.520 --> 02:26.280
That should respond once again.

48
02:26.280 --> 02:29.560
All right, let me close that and let's go back to our network topology.

49
02:29.560 --> 02:34.200
So there's our tier zero and then we have an inter router link from our tier
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

49
02:29.560 --> 02:34.200
So there's our tier zero and then we have an inter router link from our tier

50
02:34.200 --> 02:35.240
zero down to gateway

51
02:35.240 --> 02:39.240
A and then gateway A is connected to the 10 segment and then off that yellow

52
02:39.240 --> 02:40.680
segment we have two VMs

53
02:40.680 --> 02:42.920
and they are VM1 and VM3.

54
02:42.920 --> 02:48.520
VM1 being hosted by ESXIA and VM3 being hosted by ESXIB.
