Configuring an NSX IP pool

Before deploying the NSX controller cluster, an IP pool must be configured to reserve three IPv4 addresses on the network:

  1. In the vCenter Web Client, navigate to Networking & Security | NSX Managers | NSX Manager
  2. Select IP Pools and click on the plus sign
  3. Fill in the details as per the preceding table and click on OK

The IP Pool can be configured during deployment of the NSX controller cluster as well in the event it is not configured beforehand.
