-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Copy and paste the generated certificate to the NSX.
NOTE: Once controller connectivity is established from VLT peers, if you want to generate a new certificate and use
it for controller connection, generate the certificate from the node (node that is directly connected to controller). If
you do not generate a new certificate from the node, system shows inconsistent behavior.
2. Create a VXLAN Gateway.
To create service node, the required fields are the IP address and SSL certificate of the server. The Service node is responsible for
broadcast/unknown unicast/multicast traffic replication. The following is the snapshot of the user interface for the creation of service
node:
Select Home > Networking and Security > Service Definition > Hardware Devices. Under Hardware Devices, click the Add
button.
The Add hardware Device window opens. Enter a name and copy the generated certificate of the VTEP to the Certificate box and
click
OK.
Figure 160. Create VXLAN Gateway
To create a VXLAN L2 Gateway, the IP address of the Gateway is required. After connectivity is established between the VTEP and
NSX controller, the management IP address and the connectivity status are populated as shown in the following image.
